Lot 206 Talking Skull
Papier mache skull with meticulously constructed clockwork mechanism inside that will apparently interact with the performer by clicking its jaw in answer to a series of questions. This appears to have several “programs” and routines that will vary depending upon the starting position of the mechanism. A simplified, yet equally baffling version of Joseffy’s famous “Balsamo” skull. Tested and working. Includes key. German. Circa 1930. Extremely rare.

The above and so many other wonderful items will go to the highest bidder with no reserves this Sunday starting at 10:00 a.m. Pacific.

The full downloadable catalog has been updated and is available here:http://www.magicauctioneer.com/uploads/1/0/7/7/107784289/mcilhany_auction_2_catalog.pdf

Love the talking skull. It is the sort of item I like to examine to see how the builder solved the programming problems.
