Lot #18

26" (66 cm.) Beneath a large paper-mache tree whose branches are laden with silk leaves and flowers is a Scholarly Professor Monkey,seated at his lectern-style desk,facing a Monkey Student who is too small to reach the blackboard without standing on a stool. The blackboard displays arithmetic lessons and a chalk drawing of a capped and bearded monkey. The blackboard and faux- grain paper-covered furniture are of wood. The painted monkey heads are of paper-mache with articulated kidskin jaws,glass eyes and mohair wigs. They are dressed regally in silk caps,jackets and breeches with gilt trim and buttons,and painted shoes. The professor is holding his lesson books and teaching stick,and the Student is holding chalk. When wound,the Professor waves his stick and moves his head and jaw as if reading from his lesson book. The Student responds by moving his right hand to write his sums on the blackboard,while glancing alternately from his teacher to the blackboard,his jaw jabbering as if in an animated exchange. Two tunes play. The entire scene is arranged upon an ebonized wooden base under glass dome. Condition: generally excellent,music and mechanism function well. Marks: J. Phalibois A Paris (on governor and musical movement) Maitre d'ecole,No 3 (ink script on inside base) La Dame Blanche and Les Cloches du Monastere (songs listed on original paper tune label)Comments: Jean Phalibois of Paris,circa 1880,with 7 cams to animate the Professor,and 3 cams for the Student. Value Points: superbly preserved in presentation,movements and music,the very rare and charmingly- themed automaton has elaborate costuming,a total of ten movements,and clever whimsical touches such as the drawing of monkey on the blackboard.

Lot #19

27" (69 cm.) Arranged upon an ebony wooden base under an oval glass dome is a costumed monkey,posed as a gentleman artist,standing in front of a wooden artist easel which holds an oil painted canvas of flowers,in a country setting with a silk- leaved tree arbor and a large paper-mache rock formation which serves as a frame for an enamel-face clock. The Monkey Artist has a paper-mache head,glass eyes,grey mohair wig and beard,leather- skin jaw,carton torso,wooden hands,legs with painted stockings,and is richly dressed in silk shirt and breeches,and velvet vest,holding a palette and paint brush. When wound,the Monkey Artist blinks his eyes,nodding and turning his head,curling his lip while his mouth moves,as though conversing with an unseen passer-by. Meanwhile he dabs the palette and then adds deft strokes to the canvas. Periodically,he pauses as though to contemplate his masterpiece. Two tunes play. Marks: Japy Freres & Cie (clock). Condition: generally excellent,music and movements function well. Comments: Jean Phalibois of Paris circa 1880 with six-cam animations and two tune music with original,pull-string musical movement. This automaton was featured in the 1884 toy catalog of Silber and Fleming with the note "the manner in which it takes the colour from the palette and then proceeds to paint is very natural". Value Points: very rare and beautifully-preserved and functioning automaton with wonderful highly-animated flowing movements,and charming scene.

Lot #44

23" (58 cm.) h. overall. 15" x 15" base. Posed seated,with crossed legs,is a black paper-mache man with brown glass eyes,painted features,hinged lower lip,row of teeth,original black wiry beard,carton torso and legs,metal upper arms,paper-mache lower arms and hands with posed fingers for holding the hose tip in right hand,and coffee cup in left hand. The man is wearing his factory original elaborately wrapped padded silk turban with "diamond" crest,silk shirt and short full trousers,burgundy velvet jacket with gilt metallic trim,matching slippers,and elaborate wide silk sash. At his side is a classic "nargile" of wood and gilt metal with braided flexible hose and carved bone mouthpiece. When wound,a number of synchonized and realistic actions occur: turning his head toward the nargile he nods and draws the pipe to his mouth,appears to inhale,eyes open and close,and his jaw hinges open. Tilting his head back in satisfaction,he turns to the left and brings the cup of Turkish coffee to his lips as though sipping,while nodding in elaborate manner. Meanwhile,two tunes play. Condition: generally excellent,slight wear to velvet base cover and silk trousers,mechanism and music function well. Marks: L.B. (key). (Original paper tune label indicates 2 tunes "Valse Bleu" and "Mignon Gavette".) Comments: Leopold Lambert,circa 1886,the automaton appeared in a catalog of that firm identified as No.28 "Turc Fumeur". The nargile tradition originated in India and made its way to the Ottoman Empire in the 16th century where it became an entrenched status symbol; smoking with the sultan was considered the highest honor. This automaton is an example of the 19th century French fascination with the exotic features of Eastern culture. Value Points: extremely rare to find,this may be the finest extant example,being completely original and well- preserved,even having its original wooden packing box with French labeling,and with wonderful and realistic movements and music.

Finally she holds a miniature "Album de la Poupee" with 12 early sepia miniature tipped-in photographs of a poupee gazing into a toilette mirror,several toys including Polichinelle,and elegant poupees in fashionable costumes; a similar album with variation of photographs was issued by Au Paradis des Enfants Parisian doll shop in 1867.
