At this point, your Morphy Representative will coordinate all of the details of your consignments and logistics (consignment rate, special clauses, auction date, etc.) The Morphy Representative will finalize the contract with you and arrange for shipment or pick-up of your items.
INVENTORY, INSURANCE & STORAGE From the time your items are in our possession, they will be fully insured for the amount of the low pre-sale estimate until they transfer to the buyer who purchased the item at auction. After we receive your consigned items, our consignment team will tag and inventory each item. Our state-of-the-art process ensures that each of your items is properly documented and stored prior to the items being displayed. Our system also allows us to make sure the correct expert inspects, describes and estimates your items.

TERMS OF SALE
When bidding on any lot offered by MORPHY’S, the bidder indicates acceptance of the following Terms of Sale. Any participation in the auction binds you to agreement of these terms whether or not you read or understand said terms.

LIMITED GUARANTEE
TIMING
There will be no options for refunds of any type beyond 35 calendar days from the auction date. Paying late and thus receiving items late will not change the limitation on the dates above for refund consideration. Please also refer to POST SALE RETURN POLICY at end of terms. FIREARMS – These terms do NOT apply to our firearms auctions. To view the terms and conditions for our Firearms Auctions, please go to: www.morphyauctions.com/firearmterms
MORPHY’S makes every effort to accurately describe all items offered in its sales. The descriptions carry a limited guarantee. It is a guarantee to protect you against major discrepancies that would have a major effect upon the value of the item. Under no circumstances do we guarantee against anything less than a major discrepancy that would have less than a major effect upon value. This limited guarantee covers authenticity, major restoration or repair not described, counterfeits, reproductions or major fabrications not disclosed in the description. Examples of what we do not guarantee against, imperfections, slight damages, handling marks, natural imperfections, undisclosed blemishes, finish differences, wood-to-metal fit issues, surface cracks or chips in wood, dings and dents, bore condition and other similar differences that are inherent in the antiques and collectible industry. All items are sold for display purposes. If electrical, mechanical, or other working parts are inoperable, even if working at the time of sale, we are not liable due to the inherent nature of the age of these antiques and items. It is the bidder’s responsibility (present or absentee bidders) to determine by inspection by themselves or a hired professional the exact condition of each item prior to bidding on the item. Should MORPHY’S deny an authenticity issue dispute of the buyer, and the buyer is not satisfied, the buyer may, at his or her own expense, obtain the written opinion of two mutually agreed upon recognized experts in the field of the disputed item. The final decision of those experts will determine any refund consideration. This limited guarantee is only available to the buyer of record. Please also refer to POST SALE RETURN POLICY at end of terms.
GAMING DEVICES - MORPHY’S may hold these items for up to 5 business days to allow state agencies to verify the buyer’s information. All auction participants are urged to check the legality of possession in and/or shipment of gaming devices to their state of residence. Ownership of gaming devices is prohibited in these states: Alabama, Connecticut, Hawaii, Nebraska, South Carolina, and Tennessee. If you become a high bidder on a gaming item, and you are from one of the prohibited states as listed here: • You must pay for your item, • You will not be able to take possession of the item (MORPHY’S cannot ship it to you or allow pickup), • MORPHY’S will consign the item in your name to the next appropriate auction. If you do not pay for the item in full, MORPHY’S will block you from participating in future auctions. Any gaming device purchased at the auction shall be used for the purpose of display or social entertainment within the private home or residence of the buyer, and such devices shall not, in any event or manner, be exposed to the public for the purpose of gambling or be resold in the state of Nevada without a gaming distribution license. Proof of residence/ID is required for purchase of gaming devices.
Except as stated in the limited guarantee above, MORPHY’S will not be held responsible for typographical errors. Neither we nor the consignor, make any guarantees, warranties, or representation, expressed, or implied, in regard to the property or the correctness of the catalog or other description of the authenticity of authorship, physical condition, size, quality, rarity, importance, provenance, exhibition, literature or historic relevance of the property or otherwise. It is the bidder’s responsibility to initiate contact with MORPHY’S in request for additional information regarding the items. Submit all questions regarding upcoming auction items at least 48 hours prior to the date of auction. We will make every effort to answer all submitted questions in a timely manner. We will do our best, but cannot promise that questions submitted within 48 hours of the auction date will be answered prior to the auction. The consigner and we make no representation or warranty as to whether the buyer acquires any reproduction rights in the property. All items will be available for preview approximately one (1) month prior to the auction.
SPORTS COLLECTIBLES • Return Considerations o MORPHY’s is not responsible for a third party grading company agreeing or disagreeing with our assessment, and we cannot issue refunds or credits if cards do not receive a numerical grade or the exact grade that we describe. MORPHY’s strongly recommends that you personally evaluate any items that you are bidding on, and make your own determination about its grade. MORPHY’S offers no guarantee of grade for uncertified items sold and subsequently submitted to a third-party grading service. o Cards sold referencing a third-party grading service are sold “as is” without any express or implied warranty. Certain warranties may be available from the grading services, and the Bidder is referred to them for further details: Professional Sports Authenticator (PSA), Sportscard Guaranty LLC (SGC), Global Authentics LLC, Beckett Grading Services (BGS), JO Sports, Inc. o MORPHY’S will not accept return of certified items due to possible differences of opinion with respect to the grade offered by any third-party organization, dealer, or service. Grading does not qualify for return evaluation, nor do such complaints constitute a basis to challenge the authenticity of a lot. (continued...)
FIREWORKS – MORPHY’S can only ship Class 1 Division 1.4 and 1.6 Explosives (as described in the following website: http:// environmentalchemistry.com/yogi/hazmat/placards/class1.html) per the 49CFR 173.50 and can only ship these via FedEx. All items not shippable must be picked up by the buyer.
bidder
Terms & Conditions o MORPHY’s shall not be liable for any patent or latent defect or controversy pertaining to or arising from any encapsulated collectible. In any such instance, buyer’s remedy, if any, shall be solely against the service certifying the collectible. o Under extremely limited circumstances related solely to authenticity, such as a highly significant cataloging error, a buyer, who did not bid from the floor, may request MORPHY’S to evaluate voiding a sale. o Lots returned must be completely intact in their original form and undamaged holder, or there will be no credit. Certifications are void and returns are not accepted for any cards removed from their third-party grading holder. o All elements of the MORPHY’S POST-SALE RETURN POLICY apply. There are absolutely no exceptions to this policy. • On any lot presented with a Letter of Authenticity (“LOA”) issued by MORPHY’S o The bidder shall solely rely upon the warranties of the authentication provider issuing the Letter or opinion, or on the warranties of the authentication provider of the bidder’s choice. o Warranty inures only to the original buyer. Buyer may not transfer the rights afforded under the LOA, and it is null and void when Buyer transfers or attempts to transfer the lot. o The LOA warranty is valid from date of the auction in which Buyer was awarded the lot to four (4) years after its purchase. o The LOA warranty is valid as to its attribution to the person or entity described or to the lot’s usage, e.g. game worn. o Claim procedure: o Buyer must contact MORPHY’S within the warranty period, prior to submission of the lot as to his intent to make a claim, receive prior approval, and arrange secure shipment. o Buyer must present with the claim, authoritative written evidence that the lot is not authentic as determined by a known expert in the sports field. o If MORPHY’S concurs that the lot is not as represented, Buyer shall be refunded their purchase price. o If the MORPHY’s denies the claim, the Buyer agrees to the AGREEMENT REGARDING GOVERNING LAW, VENUE, AND LEGAL RIGHTS noted herein. o The LOA does not provide for incidental or consequential damages or other indirect damages. Any lot sold with a certificate of authenticity or other warranty from an entity other than Auctioneer or Morphy’s affiliates is subject to such issuing entity’s rules and such conditions are the sole remedy afforded to buyer. • In the event MORPHY’s cannot deliver the lot, or subsequently it is established that the lot lacks title, provenance, or authenticity, MORPHY’s liability shall be limited to voiding of the sale and refund of purchase price. In no case shall MORPHY’s liability exceed the winning bid on that lot, which bid shall be deemed for all purposes the value of the lot. After one year has elapsed, MORPHY’S maximum liability shall be limited to any buyer’s premium earned on that lot. • Due to changing grading standards over time, differing interpretations, and to possible mishandling of items by subsequent owners, MORPHY’S reserves the right to grade items differently than shown on certificates from any grading service that accompany the items. MORPHY’S also reserves the right to grade items differently than the grades shown in the prior catalog should such items be reconsigned to any future auction. • There is a subjectivity to grading, especially the grading of cards. Every effort is made to verify the condition of each lot as it is described. MORPHY’S accepts items for auction after careful scrutiny by not only ourselves, but, when necessary, by other leading authenticators. We cannot guarantee that every card described by us
will in all cases receive exactly the same grade, or even be accepted for grading, from any third-party grading service. Similarly, we cannot guarantee that every card graded by one third-party grading service will in all cases receive exactly the same grade by another third-party grading service. Occasionally a lot description will include the words “we have submitted,” which is intended to be taken literally and give bidders great confidence that MORPHY’S has not “done anything” to the cards to alter or otherwise improve their appearance and ultimate grade. No warranty, whether expressed or implied, is made with respect to any grade, condition, or other adjectival descriptions, which can and do vary, even among experts. • Large Autograph Group Disclaimer: When dealing with a single individual auction lot containing many items, these lots are offered with the explicit understanding that it is possible that there may be a small percentage which are not authentic. When authenticating large lots, such as a collection of 6,000+ signed 3 x 5 cards, or a set of 700+ signed baseball cards, great care has been taken in the authentication process, with all the greater attention focused on any items representing a concentration of value. It is always possible that on rare occasions a secretarial or stamped signature could be missed here or there. Without this disclaimer, as a practical matter, it would not be possible for MORPY’S to offer such lots at all. All bidders bidding on such lots do so with this understanding. • Abbreviation/Definition/Condition Key: PR — Poor, GD — Good, VG — Very Good, EX — Excellent, NM — Near Mint, MT — Mint. NOTE: If an item has a multiple grade such as VG-EX, then that item falls somewhere in between those two conditions. GOODS MADE FROM OR CONTAINING MATERIALS FROM PROTECTED SPECIES - MORPHY’S does not accept any responsibility or liability for the sale of items containing materials from protected species or for any omission in marking or labeling goods as containing materials from protected species. Such material includes, but is not limited to, ivory from elephants and walruses, tortoise shell, crocodile skin, whalebone, rhinoceros horn, some species of coral and certain woods. Restrictions on the importation, exportation, sale, transfer, and/or possession of goods containing materials from protected species derive from international, federal, and state laws and regulations promulgated thereunder. Laws include, but are not limited to, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Flora and Fauna (CITES), the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and the Marine Mammals Protection Act (MMPA). States currently restricting trade of protected species include, but are not limited to, California, New York and New Jersey. Prospective buyers are on notice that several countries completely prohibit importation of property made, all or in part, of protected materials. Some countries require special permits, such as a CITES permit, from the relevant regulating authority in the countries of exportation and importation as well. Potential buyers intending to import the property into another country should be familiar with the relevant customs laws and regulations prior to bidding on goods containing material from protected species. Regulations may vary as the U.S. generally prohibits importation of articles containing material(s) from species it has designated endangered or threatened if the articles are less than 100 years old, subject to certain exceptions. It shall be the potential buyer’s sole responsibility to research and satisfy the requirements of any laws and regulations that apply to the import and export of property as described in the aforementioned paragraphs. All buyers agree to comply with any and all domestic and international restrictions on the trade of protected species as a (continued...)
bidder
Terms & Conditions condition of the sale. Please note that the ability to obtain an export license or certificate does not ensure the ability to obtain an import license or certificate in another country, and vice versa. It is the buyer’s responsibility to obtain any export or import licenses and/or certificates as well as any other required documentation. MORPHY’S is not able to assist the buyer in attempting to obtain the appropriate licenses and/or certificates, and there is no assurance that an export license or certificate can be obtained. The inability or delay in obtaining permits, licenses or other permissions to import or export goods containing material from protected species will not constitute a basis for rescission or cancellation of the sale of said goods or the delay in payment of purchased items in accordance with these Bidder Terms and Conditions. JEWELRY AND WATCHES • Jewelry Descriptions and Condition Reports: Lots being offered are sold as-is on the day of sale. Condition reports, either written or verbal, are provided as a courtesy only, and are not to be taken as fact or guarantees of condition or quality of the lots. All information provided is the opinion of the specialist at MORPHY’S, including but not limited to weights, grades, color, and clarity. All gemstones and diamonds are measured and graded in their setting unless stated otherwise. All weights and grades are approximate. Buyers wishing to have a grading or gemological report from an independent, internationally recognized laboratory, such as the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) or the American Gemological Laboratories (AGL), may request one at their own expense or hire an independent adviser of their choosing. • Watch Descriptions and Condition Reports: The physical characteristics, timing accuracy or functionality of timepieces cannot be guaranteed, and all items are sold as-is. o Any condition statement reflects the condition of the watch on the date of the report. Condition can change from the time of the report to the day of sale. o Photographs are for identification purposes only. Buyers may not use them as precise indications of size or condition. o The origin or authenticity of all components cannot be guaranteed. o Watches with waterproof or water-resistant cases – MORPHY’S may open cases to develop descriptions, and cannot guarantee that any watch is waterproof or water-resistant at the time of purchase. MORPHY’S recommends that the buyer have a professional watchmaker evaluate the watch at buyer’s expense. o Buyers must be aware that watches may need general service, change of battery, or further repair work for which the buyer is solely responsible. o Dials - All watches have the possibility that after their original date of manufacture they received reconditioning or replacement of dials or elements of the dial such as but not limited to standard or luminescent hour markers, hands, script, date or measurement indices, lacquer, and finish. Buyer is solely responsible for determining and understanding such condition issues. • The lack of a condition report does not imply that the item or lot is free from imperfections, defects or wear and tear of the aging process. This includes but is not limited to: deficient stones, needed repair or defects. • It is common and generally accepted in the jewelry industry that some diamonds and most gemstones have been enhanced with various treatments to improve their overall appearance. o These treatments include but are not limited to: heating, dying, oiling, laser drilling, HTHP, wax, bleaching, irradiation, resin or polymer impregnation and various other techniques. o Unless stated in the title, it is assumed that one or more
treatments have been performed to the stones. While many treatments are considered permanent, this cannot be guaranteed. o Please note that many treatments cannot be determined without sophisticated laboratory testing. Due to the various laboratories and developing scientific methods for testing, not all reports or certificates will have the same results for treatment type, extent of treatment and stability of treatment. o MORPHY’S makes no representations or warranties, express or implied, as to whether natural stones have been treated or enhanced, whether specifically referenced or not. • Laboratory reports may accompany some lots o If a lot is accompanied by certificates or reports from internationally recognized and accepted gemological laboratories, it will be noted in the description. o Copies will be available upon request, with the original going to the successful bidder. o The reports cannot be guaranteed and are provided for informational purposes only. Results on reports may differ from laboratory to laboratory. o MORPHY’S accepts no responsibility for the accuracy, terms or information contained in such certificates or reports.

BIDDING RIGHTS & RESPONSIBILITIES
The auctioneer will determine the highest bidder. The auctioneer alone has the right to reopen the bidding of an item if deemed necessary due to a dispute. If there is a tie bid between the floor and Internet or absentee bid, the floor bid takes precedence. MORPHY’S and its representatives reserve the right to remove those attendees who impede preview and/or the auction. Title to all merchandise shall pass to the highest bidder at the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer. The buyer will then assume all risk and full responsibility of the lot purchased once ownership has changed. We recommend that you arrange insurance for your items immediately upon becoming the highest bidder. MORPHY’S is not responsible for any errors in bids, omissions of bids, or failure to execute bids and shall have no liability to any bidder for any technical or other failure associated with the internet, absentee bidding, or telephone bidding. • ABSENTEE BIDDING - MORPHY’S will accept absentee bids if pre-authorized by mail, fax or through www.morphyauctions. com online. Absentee bidders must use the absentee bid form and clearly mark the lot number, title and maximum bid amount. Absentee bidding forms may be accessed online at www. morphyauctions.com. If there are two (2) identical bids placed on the same item, priority will be given to the first bid received. All bids must be left in increments as explained on our bid form. If a bid is “out of increment,” the auctioneer has the right to round the bid up to the next correct increment. Bidders may preview, register and place bids online through our website, www. morphyauctions.com. Absentee and online bids placed through www.morphyauctions.com will be auto charged to the credit card entered 48 hours after the end of the sale. If you wish to pay by another method please contact us within 48 hours after the sale. Seller(s) agree to allow the Auctioneer to accept and execute absentee bids in a competitive manner for potential buyers and under the MORPHY’S absentee bidding terms and conditions.

Terms & Conditions competitively up to the maximum amount you have indicated. • ONLINE BIDDING - Online bidding through www.morphyauctions. com, Live Auctioneers, Invaluable, Proxibid, or other bidding platforms may be available; all Terms and Conditions still apply. A surcharge will be added for third party online platforms. Refer to your bidding platform of choice for the final buyer’s premium. If there is a tie bid between the internet bidding venues and the floor, the floor bid takes precedence. If a credit card has been provided to one of the online bidding platforms, MORPHY’S reserves the right to use and charge the credit card if the winning bidder has not paid via another method by the 7 day term in Payment Terms below. Due to our fast paced auctions and bids coming from floor bidders, phone bidders, internet bidders and absentee bids, the auctioneer has the final word on all item(s) sold. You (the bidder) assume the risk of winning an item online and not having the item actually sell to you. This is due to the final call of the auctioneer and the operator not being able to re-open that lot. Online bidders are responsible for accidental bidding as if they bid normally. • BID RESULTS – MORPHY’S will only contact successful bidders. Please allow 24-48 hours post auction to receive your official invoice from MORPHY’S. The invoice will include item, hammer price, premium, packing and handling, shipping, insurance, and any other charges that apply. Please hold phone inquiries regarding bid success until after receiving your invoice. For verifications, MORPHY’S cannot provide winning bid information until the second business day after the auction. MORPHY’S will not provide bidder information to any outside sources. • TELEPHONE BIDDING - Requests for phone lines must be received at least three (3) days prior to the auction date. MORPHY’S cannot guarantee phone lines but will make every attempt to accommodate those who wish to participate through that method. Phone lines are provided on a first come first served basis.

utilizes. Refer to your bidding platform of choice for the final buyer’s premium.
SALES TAX

PACKING/SHIPPING
• It is the bidder’s responsibility to take shipping, handling, and insurance costs into consideration when bidding on items. • BIDDERS PRESENT AND TAKING ITEMS AFTER AUCTION – Since item liability transfers upon a successful bid, items paid for must be packed, transported and/or removed by the buyer at his/her own risk after the close of the sale. We recommend that you arrange insurance for your items immediately upon becoming the highest bidder. If any employee or agent of MORPHY’S shall pack or transport the merchandise, it is fully at the risk and responsibility and expense of the buyer. MORPHY’S shall not be held liable for any loss or damage that may be caused by the said agent or employee. • ITEMS NOT PICKED UP THE DAY OF THE SALE – Packaging, shipping, and insurance on all items that MORPHY’S agrees to ship to locations that can accept shipments will be made available as an added courtesy and at an additional cost. We recommend that you arrange insurance for your items immediately upon becoming the highest bidder. All applicable charges will be applied to the invoice. Shipping will be based on actual costs via FedEx, USPS, or other carriers required based upon the contents of the shipment. Packaging and insurance will vary in cost depending on the items on each invoice. All packages will be shipped with insurance. Standard items packed internally by MORPHY’s will ship approximately seven to fourteen (7-14) business days after payment is received. Oversize and breakable items, which MORPHY’s will indicate on the invoice, will ship based upon the buyer’s arrangement with a 3rd party shipper. MORPHY’s cannot combine standard item shipments with oversize and breakable item shipments. Again, if any employee or agent of MORPHY’S shall pack or transport the merchandise, it is fully at the risk and responsibility and expense of the buyer. MORPHY’S shall not be held liable for any loss or damage that may be caused by the said agent or employee. • SHIPPING TERMS - MORPHY’S will ship items to the buyer at the listed address via FedEx or other carriers, FOB Denver, Pennsylvania or FOB other auction locations. Any risk of loss or damage to the item(s) during transit via FedEx, or any other carrier, in excess of the insurance provided by or purchased from MORPHY’S, is at the risk of the buyer. Any additional insurance coverage should be purchased by the buyer through the carrier. Buyer releases MORPHY’s from any and all claims for loss or damage to any item during transit and agrees to pay all costs of defense, including attorney’s fees, for any claims brought against MORPHY’S for loss or damage occurring during transit. • INSURANCE - Shipping insurance is automatically added, which you can decline by contacting us and providing a signed waiver of insurance form. Insurance for all 3rd party shipments must be arranged through that carrier. Insurance provided or purchased through MORPHY’s applies only to shipments to the United States and Canada. Buyers must purchase their own insurance for shipments to other countries. • INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENTS – MORPHY’S has the capability to ship to international bidders. By law, MORPHY’S cannot, and will not, declare lesser values for any international purchases and all shipments will include the invoice with purchase totals including the buyer’s premium and shipping cost. All international bidders

THE JEFF LANDES COLLECTION
Jeff began collecting toys in 1975 during his surgical residency in Philadelphia. His first wind-up tin toy purchase was a Chein Handstand Clown. That was an impulse buy while on vacation. That purchase led to trips to Renningers Antique Market in Kutztown, Pennsylvania, the Gaithersburg Maryland Antique Toy Show, and several Marx toy auctions. He developed an interest in comic character toys early on and decided to continue down that road. This was the start of thirty years of collecting comic toys. He always attempted to obtain toys in the finest condition with their original boxes when possible. He often upgraded to improve the quality of his collection. Now retired, it is time to downsize and share parts of his collection with other collectors who will take over ownership and enjoy the pieces a much as he did. He hopes you will find something of interest.

GORDON B. LANKTON Engineer, Industrialist, Philanthropist, Collector
Gordon B. Lankton began collecting pennies as a Boy Scout merit badge project and a life-long passion for collecting was ignited. As a Boy Scout during the war he delivered War Posters to merchants and began collecting the War Posters. His passion for collecting grew to include many forms of artwork. Gordon graduated from Cornell University with a Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering in 1954 and then served in the U.S. Army Military Intelligence in Frankfurt, Germany from 1954 to 1956. After his discharge from the army, he started a 9-month trip home traveling through eastern Europe and Asia on a motorcycle, from Germany to India and on to Japan, 1956 to 1957 and wrote the “Long Way Home” detailing his adventure. It was during this trip, with a keen eye, he began collecting wood carvings and other artwork from the countries he visited. In 1957, Gordon joined DuPont, and in 1959 he joined Stanley Tools. In 1962 Gordon joined Nylon Products, later renamed to Nypro, Inc. Gordon became President and owner in 1969 and served as President for 33 years , becoming Chairman in 2002. Nypro was sold to JABIL in 2013 creating the world’s largest plastics manufacturing company. In 2006, Gordon opened the Museum of Russian Icons, to house his collection of over 1,000 Russian icons. This collection is now considered the finest of its kind outside of Russia. In 2010 Gordon opened the Gallery of African Art to showcase his collection of close to 1,000 pieces of West Coast African art. Gordon approached collecting with enthusiasm and a hunter’s instinct. This collection of antique toy cars began when he purchased a Model T Ford with a rumble seat, made by Arcade Toys. This toy was a replica of his actual first car and he was delighted by the memories it evoked, and so began the toy collection. Gordon appreciated all genres of antique toys and collected them from all over the world. From the small scale and painted detail of the tins, the mechanics of the “bell ringers” to the whimsy of wind-ups, each one having a story to tell and over the years, the collection grew to well over 1000 pieces. To enhance this collection, Gordon had custom glass towers made to display these toys, so they could be appreciated from all angles and enjoyed showing guests this extensive collection of toys from another time. It was a joy to Gordon to see the reactions of both young and old when they saw the collection, and he enjoyed sharing the history of different toys. Gordon’s other collections include World War I and II posters, political campaign buttons, and a collection of Buddha sculptures acquired during his many travels in Asia over the years. Gordon currently lives in central Massachusetts with his wife of 62 years Janet Lankton. www.MorphyAuctions.com | March 10, 2020

LOT - 2002
2001 - LARGE GAUTHIER BEBE. 29” x 11” x 6”. Very attractive bisque socket head with incised markings on back of head (within a scroll) “11 F. G.”, with large hazel paperweight eyes, well-painted lashes and brows, pierced ears, open forward / closed mouth with illusion of molded tongue between lips, dimple in chin, mounted on the original so-called Gesland body, which is cloth-covered over a wire armature with composition lower arms with straight wrists (repainted). She is extremely well costumed in a beige gauze and lace knee-length dress with crimson ribbon decorations and sash, antique undergarments, black socks and black period children’s side button shoes. Her wig is dark human hair over cork pate. SIZE: 29” (74cm). CONDITION: Very good. There was quite a bit of excess wax which had seeped onto the upper eyelids, most of which has been removed, but some small specks may remain. 2,500 - 3,500 2002 - EXCEPTIONALLY PRETTY BRU BREVETE BEBE. 21” x 7 - 1/2” x 6”. 18” earliest Bru period Bebe incised “2” on back of head, with extremely pale bisque, nicely contrasted rouge cheeks and chin, mauve shading above the eyes, painted lashes and brows, pierced earlobes with head swiveling on a separate, flat bisque shoulder plate mounted to the original white kid body with gusset joints at the hips and knees with lovely bisque forearms with well-defined fingers and fingernails. She is dressed in a faded pink silk and lace dress - at least of the period, if not original - with remnants of a sheepskin wig over cork pate with a very nice period blonde mohair wig - again of the period - to cover the sheepskin wig skin only. The wire framed bonnet is well coordinated with the dress and she has lovely white leather round toed shoes with silk rosettes and well-marked on the sole “5” and “Bru Jne Paris” in an oval. CONDITION: Although extremely pretty, there is a very short, faint hairline in the top center of head, extending only about 1/2” or so, and beyond that, the plaster from the eyes covers the remainder of the head and appears to not go any further. The left arm is slightly paler than the right, which leads one to believe that perhaps there was some minor restoration, and indeed the center finger on the right hand is slightly wider than the remainder of the fingers on this hand or the other; hence, that has probably been restored, with slight overpaint extending onto other fingers that are actually not damaged. In addition, on the left eye’s lower eye rim, there is a tiny indentation, probably made in the making, and is outlined in black, however is likely a tiny chip in the making or an imperfection due to a slip when the eye was cut out. Very minor, but present. 3,000 - 4,500 180

LOT - 2003
2003 - EXTRAORDINARY BRU BEBE WITH TRUNK AND EXTRA CLOTHES AND ACCESSORIES. Larger: 18” x 8” x 7”. Stunning Bru incised on back of the head with the well-known logo resembling a “Circle/Dot” and also incised across the top of the forehead underneath the wig “Bte S. G. D. G.”. She has well-modeled facial features with deep depressions on each side of the forehead below the eyebrows, on the upper part of the cheeks and the chin, with pierced ears, stunning blue glass paperweight eyes, well-painted multi-stroke eyelashes, tiny brows and an open/closed mouth with protruding upper lip and painted individual teeth with tongue tip in the space between the lips. She is on the original body with a separate bisque shoulder plate and realistically molded bosom, original well-modeled lower bisque forearms (thumb missing on left hand), on the original firm leather gusseted body with gusset joints at the elbows, hips and knees. The costume she is wearing is a lovely period rusty red jacket with fur trimmed front panel, red pleated skirt, beige procade trim at the sleeves and pockets, and wearing original red stockings and round toed Bru shoes with an impressed “B” in a circle on the sole, still retaining its original buckles as well. She has an antique blonde mohair wig covering the remnants of the original sheepskin wig over cork pate and a nice antique bonnet well fitting the remainder of the costume. She also has a round top antique lithographed trunk with additional items of clothing; hats, socks, a fan, comb, mirror, brush, mache and fur wolf hound, as well as a few later made dresses and antique brown leather keystone boots as well. One of the extra dresses is antique and is very similar in style and material to the dress she is currently wearing. CONDITION: This 17 1/2” doll is in very good condition, other than the thumb as noted. 10,000 - 12,000

2004 - ATTRACTIVE BRU “CIRCLE/DOT” MODEL. 18” x 8” x 7”. Early and beautiful 16” Bru Bebe, incised above the top of the forehead “Bte S. G. D. G.” and also on center back of head the well-recognized “Circle/dot” logo. She has almond-shaped eye cuts with striking light-brown paperweight eyes, well painted lashes with brows, with pierced ears, highlighted nostrils and well modeled lips with slight white space between, almost showing tiny painted teeth. Her head swivels on a separate bisque shoulder plate with realistic molded bosom and has very nice well-defined lower bisque arms with no apparent damage or repair. The body is sturdy, relatively clean with gussets at the elbows, hips and knees. The costume is a dark maroon velvet with beige pleated silk panels in center front with small pleated skirt, antique round toed black leather shoes with an impressed “B” within an oval and she wears an antique brown human hair wig over original cork pate and a period silk hat, which is well-coordinated with the remainder of the costume. CONDITION: Very difficult to see, but there is a very faint hairline running from the rim down the forehead, more or less to the center of the right eyebrow and almost into the eye itself. It is hard to see and only seen when turned to the perfect angle to catch the line, but is nevertheless present. It does not, however, disrupt any of the beauty she has and is well covered with the wig and bonnet in place. 3,000 - 4,500 2005 - RARE JUMEAU WITH TWO FACIAL EXPRESSIONS. 18” x 9” x 5”. Seldom found doll with two character Jumeau heads, 18”, with an incised marking at the bottom of the neck socket on each side with the number “7”, on a specially made fully-jointed wooden composition body unique to this head in that it has a voice box in the center with “Mama - Papa” pull strings and a paper mache molded bonnet, which is attached to the torso. At the top of the bonnet underneath the mache and the specially made bonnet, there is a metal hook, and when turned from side to side it reveals the screaming face with tiny narrow eye-cuts as if it were squinting, its mouth obviously screaming with an open/closed expression with lips parted, tongue molded with six molded and painted upper teeth, and as that face turns to the back it exposes the other face with a broad smile, deep dimples, again with the open/closed mouth, six teeth, and with the eye-cuts slightly more open, because she is now under less stress. The top of the head is covered with a hardwood pate and because of the nature of the head is very flat on top, to allow for full movement. The body has its original patina in good condition and on the back of the torso there is an oval-shaped paper label reading “BEBE JUMEAU diplome d’honneur”. She wears antique brown leather keystone-type shoes with brown knit socks and antique underwear, a floral print cotton dress with lacy collar, which is well matched to the lace trim bonnets with a blonde mohair fringe wig, which probably only covers the forehead as there is no need to cover the entire head due to the construction of the overall mechanism.

She is attired in what appears to be a period one-piece cream wool walking suit with gold braid trim and wears the original dark blonde mohair wig with tight curls over cork pate. Although not specifically marked, both the facial characteristics and the face and the style of the body would lead one to believe that this is an early Jumeau Poupee. The white cotton and linen undergarments are antique, as are the above the ankle dark brown leather fashion boots that button on the side. On the sole of the boots, there is an impressed mark reading “2 B. V.”. CONDITION: Overall quality is superb, with what appears to be original patina to the body.

Bisque socket head with rosy complexion, very nice blue grey glass stationary eyes, an open mouth with four upper teeth on a semi-mechanical wooden composition articulated body, with joints at elbows, shoulders and knees. Although the stringing is not especially tight, thereby not allowing full intended movement, originally the arms would move out and back with head turning and legs moving back and forth, as if to “throw kisses”. In the torso, there is a white leather strip at the waist and originally when properly strung, the legs would kick forward one at a time. CONDITION: Overall very good with slight color rub on upper right forehead and slight one just below that, although completely covered when the wig is in place. At the opening of the crown, just above the right ear, there is a tiny firing split in the rim itself, but does not go into any sort of crack and does not go beyond the rim into the head itself. She wears a red cotton print dress with braid trim, possibly of the period, antique undergarments, antique white leather shoes, and a curly blonde antique mohair wig with bangs over cork pate. 1,200 - 1,800

LOT - 2033 2033 - MUSICAL AUTOMATON BY GUSTAV VICHY BLACK MAN WITH CIGARETTE. 23 - 1/2” x 12” x 23”. This very elaborate and large French automaton is known in French as “Negre De La Louisane”. The seated figure sits reclining in a rocking chair in which much of the mechanism and music box is contained. As key is wound, action starts, music plays and during the various movements he is leaning back on the chair with left arm wrapped around the top part of the chair in a bent position. The right hand is also bent and in that hand he holds a cigarette holder, in which an actual cigarette can be placed if desired and permitted. As the various movements occur, he turns his head from side to side, looks up and down and blinks his eyes. The leather eyelids are still functional, allowing for the blinking mechanism to operate. Alternately the left arm moves slightly back and forth with the right hand moving up and back as he smokes. In addition, the left leg is completely outstretched, and as he rocks forwards in other times, the left foot moves ever so slightly forward, scraping the ground with right knee in a permanent bent position, moving ever so slightly. He has a papier mache head with four square separately molded upper teeth in smiling position, very realistically portrayed. He is dressed as a dandy in a white linen suit with straw hat, a gold-pleated silk vest with red cummerbund and a rope-tie kerchief, which drapes to the waist. 23” tall from base of chair to top of man’s head and back to front from furthest point of the left toe is 24”. CONDITION: Overall very good, some possible touch-up here and there on the papier mache head and on the hands, which are painted as if to show that the hands are covered by gloves, as inside at the wrist one can see red painted buttons. 20,000 - 30,000 192

The head is constructed of papier mache, as are the forearms, with inset glass eyes and silk eyelashes on both upper and lower parts of the eyelid. She stands on a big square wooden box covered on brocade silk and is holding a long serpent with the head positioned in the left hand, which often comes dangerously close to the face. When wound, the music plays, head turns back and forth, up and down with the serpent moving back and forth and at one point she is looking at it directly in the eye with the viper looking back at her. The costume is all metallic gold-colored lace with a beaded metallic fancy sash. Operating mechanism still works well, as does the music. Also included but not positioned is a long-stemmed brass-colored instrument which may have been a replacement. She has her original brass key to operate the mechanisms with a push/pull lever to activate and deactivate as required. CONDITION: Very good with some possible paint touch-up to hands and face. 30,000 - 60,000 LOT - 2034

to play and movements begin. The body of a man has the over-sized Man in the Moon papier mache head flat in back, painted realistically in front with three-dimensional nose, lips, six painted upper teeth in an open/closed mouth and in the corner there is a receptacle for the carved bone cigarette holder. Permanently implemented in the frame of the face is a monocle and in the right hand there is a white long bone baton. When wound, the head of the moon moves from side to side, glass eyes blink up and down and baton in right arm moves in a coordinated manner with the other movements. He appears to have original clothing consisting of a pleated linen shirt with brocade vest with an over-vest made of silk with wide collar (silk somewhat frayed, but intact). He has long stretchy tight-like pants, which conform perfectly to the legs (left knee exposed), and long leather shoes with pointed toes flopping over the edge of the base of the floor. To his back there is a column at waist height with two bases: one with the written insignia, and a smaller, wider green base made of wood below. Also permanently affixed to the head is a very tiny top hat, which covers just a small amount just above the right eyebrow, but is original to the figure. The original conception of this automaton was 1899 or thereabouts. 29â&#x20AC;? tall from bottom of base to top of hat. Featured on page 68 of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Automata The Golden Ageâ&#x20AC;? by Christian Bailly. CONDITION: Overall very good, with slight surface mache chip on left upper eyelid; probability of very minor and insignificant paint touch-up over the years but very little and overall very good condition. 30,000 - 60,000

LOT - 2036 2036 - GUSTAV VICHY EQUILIBRISTE. 37 - 1/4” x 32” x 14”. Probably circa 1880’s. Exceptional musical French automaton dressed as a clown, with face painted as such, as is a balancer or an acrobat. The movements are spectacular, with the clown beginning balancing with both palms of the hands on the sides of wooden chairs. When wound, the music and movements begin, starting with the man balancing and trying to raise his back and legs upward, and as he does such the chairs move slightly, pushing front and back, until he eventually gets in with his body in almost parallel position to the floor. Then, he removes his right hand from the chair, basically balancing his entire body on the left hand only. Then, even more remarkably, he takes his body, supported solely by the weight on his left hand, back and up and to the left at an angle. After this is complete, he slowly retraces his steps and his body positions until they once again remain balanced on the top of the chairs with his body erect. He is dressed in elaborate silk clothing, hand-painted with moons, floral designs and a velvet vest with beads resembling the shape of a butterfly. The entire mechanism and the music are contained within the wooden base with three stairs leading up each side to the top level where the chairs are positioned. 36” tall overall, with the actual man from head to toe being 25” tall. CONDITION: Overall condition is very good. There probably has been slight paint touch-up at some point to the facial features, however little else has been changed in its more than 100 years of existence. 20,000 - 30,000 196

2037 - EXCEPTIONAL GUSTAV VICHY MUSICAL AUTOMATON “PAYSAN ET NOURISNON”. 32” x 11” x 9”. Highly desirable automaton, sometimes referred to by English-speaking people as “Paddy and the Pig”. The peasant is elaborately dressed with teal silk waist jacket, yellow silk brocade vest, striped velvet pants and a velvet cap with gold ribbon braid as well as a multi-colored bow tie. He is seated on the back of a chair with legs resting on the wicker seat and balanced on his left knee is a spotted pig with glass eyes. When they key is wound and motion begins, music plays, but more importantly he turns his head from side to side, up and down and at an angle. The pig awaits anxiously because in the right hand he has food, and as the pig becomes excited he sticks his tongue out in anticipation of being fed. At that point, the right arm moves towards the pig, he sticks out his tongue, and the movement implies that the pig has begun to eat what has been offered to him. During this entire process, in addition to the man’s hands moving accordingly with the various positions and actions, his chest heaves up and down as he does so. Also, his right foot, which begins slightly above the seat of the chair, begins to move and taps the seat, creating a definite tapping sound. Most of the mechanism and the music box is contained in the base of the wooden chair and has its original key to activate with a stop/start pull mechanism to begin the movement once the sufficient tension has been created to allow movement. 32” tall from base of chair to top of man’s hat. CONDITION: Overall condition is very good. It is most likely that at some time over the years there has been some paint retouch to head and composition hands, but has been well done and not to excess. All movements appear to be working about as perfectly as possible, given the type and age of the item. 20,000 - 30,000

2038 - LEOPOLD LAMBERT CLOWN MAGICIAN AUTOMATON. 26” x 8” x 11”. Exceptional musical automaton with painted papier mache head, composition hands and dressed in original clothing. He has decaled painted on his face of butterflies and insects, with painted red nose tip and cheeks. When activated by key wind in the base and on/off lever is pulled, music plays and he begins his act. In his right hand there is a brass cone and in the left a wand. he moves his head back and forth, looking down at the cone as it rises to expose items beneath and to the left as he is tapping the cone with the wand in the interim process. Underneath the cone, given enough time, four separate objects appear: first, a die, then a piece of jewelry, then a pocket watch and finally a clump of fruit. Once all items have been exposed, the sequence of objects appear again in that particular order if there is enough action remaining in the mechanism to allow. 25” tall from bottom of base to top of clown’s head, with the figure itself being 19” tall. CONDITION: Overall very good, perhaps a little bit of retouch to the face, particularly on the red nose and mouth, but well done. 6,500 - 9,500

2039 - LEOPOLD LAMBERT MUSICAL AUTOMATON. 19” x 9” x 9”. Very pretty young girl with closed-mouth bisque head, stamped in back in red “TET JUMEAU 4”. She has brown paperweight eyes, pierced earlobes and a flat-cut neck, allowing her head to swivel on the mechanism when wound. When the key-wind is turned and the on/off level is pulled, she begins to move, with head moving slightly from side to side and up and down, with the right hand holding a fan, the left hand holding a lorigoitte, which rise or fall alternatively as she turns head from side to side. The base contains the music box and most of the mechanism and is covered in gold velvet, which appears to be original. The mohair wig is original and printed silk dress most likely replaced at some point in time but is in very good shape and is well costumed with antique lace at the bottom. Figure is 15” tall, 18” including base. CONDITION: Silk dress is most likely a replacement, as noted. There has been a restoration on the palm of the left bisque hand, but well done. Overall very good. Movement is in working order but somewhat sluggish. 2,500 - 3,500
2040 - LOT OF 2: CLOCKWORK MECHANICAL “JOLLY JIGGERS”. Larger: 4 - 1/4” x 6 - 1/2” x 4”. Both of these items are similar in construction, in that you have two dancing figures, each atop a wooden box in chest-like form made of oak with stencil-painted front on both, one figure of a girl in very good condition, the other somewhat worn. In the rear of the box, there is a hole to insert a key to activate the clockwork contained within, and on the left side of each is an on/off switch that, when pushed up, will cause the dolls to start dancing or stop dancing when depressed, assuming that the clockwork is wound tight enough prior. On the one, we have two wooden black females with loosely jointed heads, shoulders, hips, knees and ankles. When activated, the wires that support the figures drop down into the clockwork and makes them start jumping around, swiveling, dancing back and forth in multiple positions. They are purposely loosely jointed so that as they move, they shake and dance with an extreme looseness. On the one are two painted females. On the other is a painted female with ballerina-type costume, white painted gloves and decorated stockings from ankles to knees, her male counterpart wears silk shorts with suspenders, a permanently affixed red hat, stockings painted on the lower legs in similar style to the woman but with a slightly different color and design. This particular item is lacking one of the wires suspending one of the characters, so unless this is found or a substitute is improvised, this will not work. There is also no key and although it looks like they will probably work, it cannot be confirmed without testing with an appropriate size key. Figures are 5 - 1/2” tall; box from base to top is 4 - 1/2” tall and 6 - 1/2” long. CONDITION: Other than as noted above, very good paint and very good condition. 800 - 1,200 2041 - VERY EARLY EUROPEAN ORGAN GRINDER AUTOMATON. 11” x 6 - 1/2” x 8”. Maker unmarked, but looks German. Marked “1885 Philadelphia” in pencil on the bottom base.

Looks to be all original including all clothing, paper on base and wood. Some minor wear to clothing on organ grinder and one or two splits in the wooden base from age. 2,000 - 4,000

Second is a very elaborate Convertible with original canvas convertible top, which has a hole for the mechanism stick so it can be wound open or close. Interesting robin egg blue and yellow coloring. Tin windshield and frame are present, with same primitive wooden headlights as first and rear-mounted clockwork mechanism.
