One of the most famous faces in New Orleans Square, a versatile performer able to tackle roles both dead and alive...the infamous Pirate Auctioneer (1967) and the Ghost Duelist (1969).

There is a look of our old pal Big Daddy Roth there too if I am not mistaken
whoah..never noticed that one before.
The ghost seems to have a bit more of a squint going on- is this caused by distorting the final skin with the internal animatronics? I would assume the ghost has a solid head with no internal works, since that's not really required for his part in the Mansion. Does that mean that his represents the more accurate head sculpt, and that the Auctioneers has been manipulated into that expression by the functioning eyes, brows etc...?
Do we know who the inspriration was for those figures? Was it one of the imagineers, or is that face entirely a creation of Blaine Gibson's?
Kevin - great to see the two next to each other. Thanks!
haha, i see what Mick sees! Great visual comparison, Kev! There are many more duplicates if you seek them!
Very cool! Thanks for the comparison!
The Bride Auctioneer = The Duelist = Ed Roth? What a chain of identities. Definitely reincarnation.
