| 520 | _a"The Automatic Toy Works" by New York Automatic Toy Works is a catalog of mechanical toys and novelties produced in the early 1880s. As a collection of product descriptions, this book showcases a range of innovative toys that rely on clockwork mechanisms to delight children and adults alike. It reflects the period's fascination with automation and beautifully crafted toys, which were becoming increasingly popular in both the United States and abroad. The catalog includes detailed descriptions of various mechanical toys, each designed to mimic real-life movements and activities. For instance, notable entries feature a mechanical bear that realistically mimics the animal's postures, a sewing-machine girl that moves with the actions of a real seamstress, and humorous representations of racial stereotypes, like the old fiddle-playing man and a preacher figure. Each toy is presented with an accompanying price, highlighting their intricate designs and craftsmanship. The collection not only illustrates the technical brilliance of its time but also serves as a reminder of the outdated and offensive racial imagery prevalent in its marketing.
