Notes: Our very close friend Ida comes from the small village of Perancak near Negara in west Bali. He heard from the local council that they wished to have tourists coming to visit their temple. They also wanted the local shadow puppet theatre to provide a modern entertainment for the visitors. They were instructed to make a complete new set of puppets. Ida, on our behalf stepped in and bought the complete set of puppets, they were quite old, over 100 years but very beautiful. We also bought the whole gamalan orchestra of about 140 pieces.

Golly china and ephemera, including Carltonware - Golly in top hat --3½in. (9cm.) high and Florence K Upton teapot; The Silver Crane Co - golfing Golly teapot, salt & pepper and two egg cups; Colour Box Gollies; a Pelham puppet and other items. These items are listed on the basis they are illustrative of by a gone culture in which there were different social norms. We understand the potential controversy surrounding this type of item but believe that providing transparent information about historical context fosters greater understanding of our complex cultural history. Originally handmade by mothers in Africa for their children from old fabric and cloth, the golly doll was adopted as the mascot and trademark for the Robertson's confectionery brand around 1910 after the company's founder John Robertson visited the US and noticed children playing with them. Robertson's Gollies have been collected by people across the UK and around the world for generations but garnered a contentious image in the 1980s because of links to racism. The trademark was removed from Robertson's branding in 2001.
