Three Books on Automata - GORGEOUS

[Brad Henderson]

Three hard back, full color auction catalogs featuring some of the most beautiful automata ever built. ‘Playing their Parts’, ‘When the Circus Comes to Town’ and ‘Dolls in Motion’.

These limited print catalogs are great for automata fans who want a record of some important pieces and the prices for which they sold, and will be loved by anyone who appreciates antique dolls and mechanical marvels.

Magicians have exhibited automata in their performances and collections for nearly two centuries. If you would like to see a great collection, look for the Dan and Dave/R Paul Wislon produced video, Rooms for Wonder. It’s a video tour of one of the great automata collections in the United States houses in Richard Garriott, legendary Britania Manor.

These sold originally for about $185. One of the dust jackets is torn. Otherwise they are in good shape. Will sell the lot for $100 and i’ll Pay media mail shipping.
