Reference Code: GBR/0012/MS Add.10275/5/12/2/2

Scope and Contents

A file containing documents that revolve around the process of making foam latex puppets. The file's contents appear to have been partially compiled from previously produced documentation, relating to the production of puppets and the satirical television series, Spitting Image. The file holds the following: computer printouts of a document that appears to be dated c 2019; printouts of photographs or photocopies of pages on how to make a Spitting Image puppet from the publication, A Nasty Piece of Work: The Art and Graft of Spitting Image; copies of documentation from a proposed Australian university course on puppet making, originals dated 1996; and copies of several pages taken from the early 2000s reboot file [see entry MS Add.10275/5/12/1]. Also present are several copies of an email sent to Roger Law from Adam Lowe at the art conservation company, Factum Arte, which mentions Law's intention to make a Donald Trump puppet that can defecate.
