Pierrot écrivain - Unique Automaton Unique Automaton -Pierrot écrivain- squelette by André Soriano This fantastic piece was made for the Musée National de Monaco by the famous clockmaker and curator of the Galéa collection to demonstrate how the famous Vichy piece works. He not only copied the look of the automaton but created his own mechanism to make sure it would stand daily performances over years. As any specialist can see, this is built for eternity, with the finest clockmaker skill and materials, and is completely different from the fragile mechanism of Vichy, Bertrand or Bailly. Look at the detail pictures. A piece of Art. Story The Pierrot sits behind his desk and is writing a letter to Colombine. His head is moving and his hand with the feather pen is gliding over the paper. The real flame on the petroleum lamp fades away and his head falls down, his eyes close and the Pierrot is falling asleep. All of a sudden he wakes up, turns the light bright and continues to write his letter. Soooo nice and full of poesie.FR) Dimensions: 35 x 54 x 58

Flying Spares were then entrusted to carry out renovation of the woodwork and general servicing, the work totalling around £8,000. The car was then driven to Andorra before being shipped to South Africa where it saw summer use for the next six years being looked after by Cape Town Bentley specialist Steve Marsh. In 2012, following servicing at Hanwells of London, the car was used in Ireland for six months, then driven to Gozo, Malta, prior to returning to the UK in March 2015. Described as being "well maintained" with paintwork and interior commensurate with its mileage of c.128,000, a number of post-2005 invoices accompany the car. One of the first fuel injected cars, it is expected to possess a new MoT in time for the sale. The vendor notes the driver's seat motor and cruise control appear inoperative.
Manufactured by Triang Ltd, model number TM 0105. Maroon livery with faux cream trim. Two owners from new, the last since 1980 who has stored it for the last 35 years. Offered requiring some renovation, the bodywork featuring a crack to one wing and the base of the seat pan - the windscreen, mascot and part of the hood cover are all missing. The rear lamp lenses are missing, but the surrounds have survived - all three lamp switches are there, however one of the bezels is missing. Both battery compartments are intact. Pedals, cranks and steering all work, but the steering column requires straightening. Bumpers, over-riders, lower side trims and door handle mouldings; hubcaps have all survived but require cleaning at least. Radiator shell is complete, but has suffered some splits. Beauty rings and hubcaps are all present and in good order. A worthwhile project.
