My name is Graham Sale, and I’m the creator of Boneless Chuck
How does a pink, pudgy, bean-bag doll become loved around the world for over 40 years?
Comfort cancer patients? Help the police? Travel to over 40 countries, 7 continents, and all 50 states? Attend the Olympics? Dance with Cirque Du Soleil? Visit Elvis’s grave? Ride in the Sturgis Bike Rally? And, raise money to fight cancer?
Where is Chuck today?
Chuck is manufactured in China. Recent tariff policies make it financially impossible to produce him. A minimum order that once cost $8,000–$10,000 now costs about $28,000. I’m a one-man show, and that simply isn’t feasible. No one knows when—or if—these conditions will change. I prefer to manufacture Chuck domestically, but it hasn’t been economically viable. That said, I’m continuing to explore realistic options to produce him here. If you have manufacturing contacts, let me know!
Fun Breaking News…
I am publishing a book about Chuck’s amazing and unexpected story—and you can be part of it! I’d love you to share your stories, memories, and photos of Chuck. Email them to me and they may even appear in the book.
Thank you in advance,
Your friends…
