REPLICATION BUBBLE BLOWING BEAR AUTOMATON
Item Details
Description
This is a replication of a 1920s window display from Marshall Fields Department Store in New York City. It featured an electric-powered bear blowing bubbles to memorialize the feat of the unsinkable Molly Brown, the famous Titanic survivor. CONDITION: This replication is electrified, the bear raises and lowers its arm into a supported cup that would hold bubble soap, and raise it to her mouth and blow bubbles. There is some tattering to his clothing from age and use. There is some soiling from the spilling of bubble soap. A very whimsical automaton in workable condition. PROVENANCE: From the lifelong collection of Bill Howard. This is not a standard shippable item and will require 3rd party shipping or pickup arrangements to be made. Condition: (Good) Dimensions: 41"
