Our expert's notes

Walter Black’s (Mel Gibson) beaver puppet from Jodie Foster’s comedy-drama The Beaver. Walter Black suffered from depression and used a beaver puppet as a method of coping with his mental illness.

This plush beaver puppet has an opening at its bottom which allows the user to insert their arm and manipulate the mouth. The piece is detailed with plastic eyes, a plastic nose and a set of urethane teeth. A wire lines the perimeter of the tail, allowing it to be manipulated and set to a specific position. The interior of the puppet is lined with spandex, and marked “#5”.

Also included with the puppet is Walter’s information card, given to him by his psychiatrist in order to explain his use of the puppet to the general public. A custom-made stand accompanies the piece for display purposes. Intentional wear is present throughout the puppet and it is in very fine overall condition. Dimensions (on stand): 28 cm x 23 cm x 48 cm (11” x 9” x 19”)
