MUSICAL CLOWN MAGICIAN AUTOMATON. Paris: Leopold Lambert, ca. 1910. Impressive clown magician with hand painted face, glass eyes, and multi-colored silk costume standing behind a table, a spun metal cup in his right hand and wand in his left. When wound and activated, the magician raises the cup to reveal one of four objects – a watch, a gem, a die, or a compass. The figure raises and lowers his head, shaking it from side-to-side, sticks out his tongue, and waves the magic wand in his hand. These actions are accompanied by a two-tune music box. The whole resting on an orange plush-covered base, with original key bearing the “LB” hallmark. Height 24”. Clothes have been replaced. See Salon de Magie, page 104.
