Nagamori Cultural Memorial Foundation Automata Collection

Automata Collection

The Nagamori Cultural Memorial Foundation owns a collection of 347 items, including antique music boxes, automata, and player pianos, and this book features 92 of these items, primarily automata.

This book, published to commemorate the spring opening of the Nagamori Collection Gallery, which displays and preserves the collection, can be called the definitive edition of automata, featuring valuable materials such as footage of lamps being lit, soap bubbles being blown, and cigarette smoke being blown out, as well as X-ray photographs of the internal structure of the mechanisms.
