Compulsion Ends With 30 000 Pieces Whittler Creates Miniature Show
United Press internatic Ernie Palmquist has been a compulsive whittler most of his life. He and his wife Virginia built a 12 by 30 feet fully animated 30 000 piece Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show in miniature. The scene features a main arena with Buffalo Bill, Annie Oakley, parades, rodeo activities, sideshows, and an Indian village. It took 12 years to carve, draws 22 motors, and toured as a miniature circus for 30 years. The Palmquists have since bought a home in Florida and toured the U S and Europe meeting many people.
