Puppet Show Automaton

Description: A puppet show mounted in a small wooden stage appears to be a type of automaton. There are wires and a battery on top of the stage that when turned on will cause the figures to move. There is a mother spanking a boy, a minstrel dancing, a monkey directing three kittens that are fiddling, and a man sawing wood.
