Ed takes a bow
Here is a beautiful b+w shot of the finished chimp costume. I sculpted the head and the hands. Gino Acevedo painted it, and a crew of specialists did the hairwork, built the suit, mechanized the arm extensions and the hands (which worked very well), and of course the actress who played him and the puppeteers who worked the mouth all did their parts to bring this thing to life.
Ed.
The best chimpanzee costume that no one has ever heard of.
