The Unemployed Philosophers Guild

About The Unemployed Philosophers Guild:They came into being in the last decades of the 20th century, when two brothers found their inner creativity in the midst of a dwindling academic job market. It turned out that fulfilling gift-giving needs proved to be almost as satisfying as probing eternal questions. (maybe not quite) Although they still contemplate truth and justice, it is their enduring goal to fulfill the materialistic desires of the funny and sophisticated everywhere!

PEEPERS!

Hobey Ford, inventor of Peepers, demonstrates the versatility of this amazing little puppet. We are proud to carry the original Peepers in our gift shop.
