1906réf. 2854Paris, K-B (Kratz-Boussac), circa 1906. 26,5 x 20 x 5 cm. Boîte recouverte de papier rouge. Titre doré sur le couvercle. La Boîte Magique est un jouet magnétique créé à l'origine par Abraham Martin, ingénieur mécanicien, qui déposa son brevet en France le 21 décembre 1894 avant de céder ses droits à Henri Kratz-Boussac en janvier 1906. Ce dernier, fondateur de la célèbre "Société des inventions brevetées" et de la marque Euréka, commercialisa alors le jouet sous sa propre marque. Malgré son nom évocateur, le principe est purement magnétique : à l'intérieur d'un boîtier en métal chromé, un mécanisme entraîne en rotation un ou plusieurs volants à axe aimanté, lequel — actionné par une crémaillère — communique son mouvement à des figurines [en chromos, en papier crépon et cure pipe, en simple fil de fer torsadé, ou encore en tôle lithographiée (train et poisson)] posées sur des patins métalliques glissant sur la surface lisse de la boîte, s'animant ainsi en va-et-vient ou en rotation. Cette version de la boîte magique de Kratz-Boussac, avec ses sept compartiments, correspond vraisemblablement à la version de luxe, bien plus généreuse en figurines et accessoires que les modèles courants à deux compartiments décrits dans les catalogues de l'époque.

1900réf. 223161900. Early twentieth century Mexico documented in photographs and real photo postcards depicting rural life Indigenous labor archaeological sites and urban landscapes during the decades surrounding the Mexican Revolution. The images record scenes of everyday activity alongside monumental remains of ancient Mesoamerican civilizations illustrating the cultural landscape of Mexico during a period when tourism archaeology and national identity formation increasingly emphasized the country's Indigenous heritage. Photographs of markets domestic work agricultural labor and village life provide visual evidence of social conditions and cultural practices within rural communities during the early twentieth century. Archive of thirty nine black and white real photo postcards and photographs dating from approximately the 1900s through the 1920s. Many images contain captions printed in the negative in English or Spanish identifying locations and subjects. Several photographs depict well known archaeological sites including views of the Pyramid of the Sun at Teotihuacan and detailed images of the carved serpent heads of the Temple of Quetzalcoatl. Other photographs document rural environments and community life including images labeled "Xochimilco Mex." showing canal traffic and canoe riders navigating the waterways near Mexico City. One real photo postcard captioned "Haciendo tortillas" depicts Indigenous women preparing tortillas over open fires surrounded by cooking vessels and firewood. Additional photographs show thatched roof dwellings agricultural labor including men harvesting agave plants and scenes of local marketplaces. A group portrait depicting Mexican soldiers alongside women and children suggests the presence of military or political activity during the revolutionary era. The photographs reflect a period when Mexico's archaeological monuments and Indigenous communities were increasingly photographed by travelers ethnographers and publishers producing visual material for both domestic and international audiences. After the Mexican Revolution of 1910-1920 intellectual and political movements promoting indigenismo emphasized Indigenous heritage as a central component of Mexican national culture while archaeological research at sites such as Teotihuacan gained international attention. Real photo postcards circulated widely during this period and served both as souvenirs and as documentary images of landscapes monuments and local communities. Photographs and postcards generally measure approximately 3 x 5 inches and remain preserved as loose prints. Minor edge wear and surface toning visible with occasional curling at the corners; most images retain strong contrast and clarity. Overall very good condition. The archive provides a varied photographic record of Mexican cultural life Indigenous communities and archaeological sites in the early twentieth century. unknown

1905réf. 231541905. Texas HistoryBorderlands U.S.-Mexico borderlands photograph album 1905-1906 centered on El Paso and Juárez with additional views in New Mexico Arizona California Oregon and Alaska. The album documents an early twentieth-century traveler's movement through the southern border of the U.S. when El Paso and Ciudad Juárez were being promoted through rail travel tourism and cross-border entertainment and when American visitors regularly treated Mexican religious sites plazas bullrings and street life as part of a border excursion circuit. Its strongest historical value lies in the concentration of images tied to the Texas-Mexico border including Juárez bullfight and cockfight scenes street and church views and domestic group portraits in El Paso alongside a labeled photograph of a Santo Domingo Pueblo corn dance likely Kewa Pueblo north of Albuquerque showing non-Native travelers recording Indigenous life in the Southwest. Photograph album containing 81 original photographs most measuring approximately 2 x 3 to 4 x 5 inches mounted on thick black paper leaves in a cloth-bound album. Contemporary manuscript captions identify numerous locations and subjects including "El Paso Tex" "Juarez Mex" "Bull Fight" "Cock Fight" "Near Albuquerque 1906" "1906 New Mexico" "New Mexico 1905" "Juarez Mex Church over 350 years old" and "Corn Dance. Santo Domingo." Visible subjects include family and social group portraits posed on porches and in front of residences; women in white dresses and men in coats hats and ties; a tree-lined park path in El Paso; religious architecture and church interiors in Juárez; a fountain identified as Robinson Park in Albuquerque; river and landscape views labeled Rio Grande; a saguaro cactus study; a donkey; a seated elderly woman in a doorway; and multiple arena photographs showing matadors horses attendants spectators and ring action in Juárez. Several photographs bear later ink inscriptions including one later image of five men captioned "Alaska" en recto and with names on verso including "Mayor Goldstein" a prominent Jewish businessman and six time Juneau Mayor Isadore Goldstein. The album records border travel encompassing scenes of domestic life in El Paso tourism in Juárez and excursions into New Mexico and the wider West. The Juárez images are especially strong preserving direct vernacular views of public spectacle in the bullring and cockfight pit as well as church architecture and urban settings seen from the perspective of a visiting American observer. Photographs mounted throughout; some images faded or silvered with scattered surface wear corner wear occasional discoloration and a few later annotations or tape remnants visible.

Exceptionnel jeu de patience, d'une très grande rareté, sur le thème de l'Exposition Universelle de 1878.

Sont représentés les pavillons de la ville de Paris, des Eaux et Forêts, de l'Amérique Centrale, de la Belgique, de la Suisse, de l'Autriche, de l'Algérie, des États-Unis d'Amérique, de la Russie, de la Tunisie, de la Perse, de la Suède et de la Norvège, du Luxembourg, du Maroc et de l'Annam, de la Grèce, de la Chine, des Indes Anglaises, du Portugal, du Danemark, de l'Italie, de l'Angleterre, de l'Espagne, mais aussi le Trocadéro, ses Colonnades, la Gare de Chemin de Fer, le Champ de Mars et son Palais.Etiquette du célèbre magasin "Au paradis des enfants" encollée à l'intérieur du couvercle. L'Exposition universelle de 1878 est la troisième Exposition universelle de Paris ; elle a lieu du 1er mai au 31 octobre 1878 sur le Champ-de-Mars, et couvre ainsi 75 ha. Elle célèbre l'industrie, le travail et le progrès. La gare du Champ de Mars est refaite, et on construit le Trocadéro pour l'occasion. Le Palais de l'Exposition, dit aussi Palais de fer, occupe presque tout le Champ-de-Mars. Il renferme les envois de toutes les nations. Comparable à une longue serre en damier, il occupe une surface de 420 000 m². La Rue des nations, avec ses façades typiques de chacun des pays exposants, occupe tout un côté de l'édifice. Le centre du bâtiment est consacré aux beaux-arts et au stand de la ville de Paris. Une "Galerie du Travail" expose les richesses du savoir-faire humain et une section d'anthropologie permet d'observer des crânes d'assassins. C'est durant cette exposition que l'on peut visiter la tête de la statue de la Liberté ou l'aquarium de la colline de Chaillot, emprunter le ballon captif d'Henri Giffard, admirer le pavillon japonais qui impressionne beaucoup ou encore le modèle en plâtre au 1/3 du lion de Belfort présenté par Bartholdi et récompensé.
