Lot 80

The various moving components of the main scene all appear to be working, however the automaton movement currently only functions manually, not under its own power, and it does not run continuously - a full service is recommended; the comb is missing three teeth; the automaton appears to only play one tune; there are areas of loss to the lithographic scene to the front, particularly to the lower edge; the glazed front is in good order; medium to heavy surface scratches, marks and losses to the ebonised case consistent with age and use over time.
