If the small automats quantitatively are not represented best on this page, they of course remain the most adapted to a private use and more especially as their task is not then any more associated a commercial purpose.

It is always interesting and amusing to treat an automat with the second degree.

Is it possible to forget that this handling character of the puppets is an automat? Certainly not and it is not the finality.

But why not let itself take with the play one moment?

One finds in this character distributor of leaflet an automat with advertising vocation.

It takes a document in the basket placed in front of him then raises it so that somebody seizes and thus reproduces his gesture of it.

The principle is adaptable to all kinds of sizes and aspects.

It is possible to at will supplement its advertising vocation by equipping it with a modifiable sound message according to the promotion which one wishes to develop.

This option is adaptable to all the automats.

A schoolgirl wisely installed in front of her work table (antic).

From time to time, it leans the head and writes one moment then raises the head.

The monkey, probably one of the animals most used out of automat during previous centuries.

Here, it is satisfied to turn the head and to applaud...

It can, as all the other automats, being equipped with a detector of presence for a specific startup automatic.

Finally a smoker who will not fall very seriously sick and who will not harm his entourage!
Often, an accessory of quality can be at the origin of an inspiration.

It is the case for this young girl being balanced on her horse.

Another "traditional" intended to draw the attention and to make dream : the blower of bubbles.

Often represented in the form of Teddy bear, one can take pleasure to see him adopting another aspect.

Here still the principle is adaptable to all kinds of characters of very diverse aspects and sizes.
