Neil Hardy, Blue elephant, a hand-operated automaton, wood, painted wood, plywood, wire, nylon, bearing label to underside Neil Hardy Fabulous Animals. These toys are not suitable for children., approx. 15.5cm high, 13.3cm wide, 4.6cm deep; together with two others by the same artist, comprising: Shy Tortoises, a hand-operated automaton, wood, painted wood or composition, wire, nylon, signed and dated Neil Hardy 98, approx. 12cm high, 15cm wide, 7.3cm deep; and Carnivorous Sheep, a hand-operated automaton, wood, painted wood, wool, wire, brass, signed and dated Neil Hardy 95, approx. 14cm high, 14.5cm wide, 7cm deep (3)Sir Nicholas Goodison noted:Blue Elephant: Elephants are not normally blue, but this one gets easily frightened. The simple movement raises the mouse above the surface, whereupon the elephant, with frightened eyes and well developed tusks, lifts his whole body (which is pulled up by an almost invisible nylon thread concealed behind the trunk) off the ground, standing on his trunk. The inscription reads The Rarely seen Blue Elephant defends itself from its arch enemy the mouse. This is one of Neil Hardys Fabulous Animals. Neil Hardy trained and worked as an architect until the early 1990s. Inspired by Cabaret Mechanical Theatre, he turned to automata making for family and friends, making a full-time job of it in 1992. He has made a theme of evolutionary, and of endangered species and conservation of the environment blunders in his Fabulous Animals seriesShy Tortoises: The two tortoises stick out their long necks as the single cam presses down the sprung wire that draws the heads together by increasing tension on nylon connecting threads. Then, when they touch each other, they spring back into their shells as cam trips the wire and releases the tension. The stick-on paper is inscribed The painfully shy Pink Tortoises slowly get to know each other better.Carnivorous sheep: The sheepdog crouches, panting as he watches the docile sheep after a bit of active herding. Much to his surprise, the sheep turns out to have the head of a much more fearsome creature with sharp teeth, and the dog falls over backwards in astonishment and fear. The movement is a cam and lever mechanism. The inscription reads Though always keen and eager the sheepdog never really got the hang of herding carnivorous sheep.Provenance:Blue Elephant: Purchased, Frivoli, Chiswick, London, June 1993.Shy Tortoises: Purchased, Hitchcocks, Bath, October 1998.Carnivorous Sheep: Purchased, Neil Hardy, Wimbledon, London, at Crafts Fair, Chelsea.Note: Neil Hardy worked as an architect for 13 years before becoming an automatist.His creations have been exhibited internationally, including in Japan, Australia, and Germany.His work is imbued with a sense of fun and whimsy, and he always uses animals to create amusing sculpture.Roseberys do not guarantee the working order of any automata or toy.
A quantity of mechanical tinplate toys, late 20th century, to include: Performing Elephant by Josef Wagner, Germany, coloured tinplate, wood, marked Alles Nurnberger Blechspielzeug and Made in Germany, with a globe ringed by a ribbon marked JW in plain unmarked box plain, 23cm high, 21cm wide; another similar; a clockwork Carousel, attributed to Josef Wagner, Germany, 1980's, coloured tinplate, 18cm high; a reproduction tinplate clockwork Zeppelin by Schilling Associates Inc, 23.5cm wide; a Fairground Swing by Josef Wagner, 22cm wide; Speedway Auto Racer, Schylling, coloured tinplate, approx. 36.5cm diameter; a boxed reproduction clockwork Carousel, by Paya, Spain, 1990, approx. 18cm high; other Paya reproduction clockwork tinplate toys, to include a Trapeze artist, approx. 19cm high; and other toys (lot) Sir Nicholas Goodison noted: Performing Elephant: The balls rise up the Archimedes screw, at the top of which there is a rotating Chinese umbrella and fall into the bottomless basin held by the elephant. Meanwhile the three wings held up by the elephant’s trunk rotate at speed. He is a versatile elephant, which is what circuses want. The base is decorated with a double frieze of a procession of minstrels, elephants, dromedaries and horses. Speedway Auto Racer: The clockwork is wound by lever. The speedway tilts in a circular motion, propelling the cars round the track. There are frequent crashes as cars career round and are clearly driven by spectacularly bad drivers, but the design is ingenious. The drum is printed with a panoramic picture of crowds in stands.Provenance: Performing Elephant: Purchased, Hawkin & Co., Norfolk, March 1996.Speedway Auto Racer: Purchased, Selfridges, London, May 2003.Roseberys do not guarantee the working order of any automata or toy.
