A Perky Pig Marionette made by Pelham Puppets.
The Pinky and Perky line of SL puppets were first introduced by Pelham in 1962. On the original Tv Show Pinky wore red and Perky wore blue but in black and white this distinction was not particularly clear so Perky wore a hat. However in the early run of these puppets Pelham released Pinky with a hat and Perky without. After 1970 both of the pig's were given hats as shown by this Perky model.
