Le Petit Automate. Las Vegas: Mike Michaels, ca. 2010. A borrowed finger ring changes into a golden key, which is used to wind up an automaton bird resting in a velvet-covered box. The bird moves, sings, flaps his wings, and lays a golden egg. When the egg is opened, the missing ring is discovered inside. Complete with instructions and accessories. 20 ?? high. As new.
