- BABES IN TOYLAND, LAUREL AND HARDY,
BABES IN TOYLAND, LAUREL AND HARDY, STOP-MOTION ANIMATI...BABES IN TOYLAND STOP-MOTION ANIMATION SOLDIER
A stop-motion animation toy soldier puppet from Babes In Toyland / March of the Wooden Soldiers (Hal Roach Studios, 1934). The soldier is constructed of carved wood and machined metal parts that have been meticulously hand painted, with additional bent wire bayonet detail. The figure has fully articulating arms and legs with hinged “ankles” and a split base allowing the figure to “walk.” The soldier is accompanied by a DVD copy of the film. The film was originally released as Babes In Toyland as it is based upon the 1903 operetta of the same name by Glen MacDonough and Victor Herbert. When it was re-released, the film was renamed March of the Wooden Soldiers due to the stop-motion animation sequence that happens in the last four minutes of the film.
The film stars comedy duo Laurel & Hardy, as Ollie Dee and Stannie Dum work who for the toy maker in Toyland. They inaccurately take down Santa’s toy order for Christmas inspiring this famous exchange:
Santa: I ordered 600 solders at one foot high.
Stan: I thought you ordered 100 soldiers at six feet high
This misunderstanding prompts the classic Oliver Hardy response, “This is another fine mess you’ve gotten us into.” Despite their blunder, Laurel & Hardy finish the film as heroes when their one hundred six-foot soldiers save Toyland from Silas Barnaby and his marauding Bogeymen.
The stop-motion animation sequence was created by special effects animator Roy Seawright and cinematographer Art Lloyd using 100 one-foot high soldiers. The film was originally released in November of 1934 and it is likely not a coincidence that this was just over a year and a half after the premier of King Kong, (RKO,1933) in March of 1933. King Kong was a huge success largely because of the incorporation of a staggering number of innovative special effects technologies including Willis O’Brien’s stop-motion animation sequences. The critical reception of these innovative new special effects technologies very likely inspired Roach to incorporate the stop-motion animation sequence in this film.
This puppet is an extraordinarily early and rare example of this technology in exceptional condition. Prior to the discovery of this solder, there was only one other known to survive in a damaged state, owned by Laurel & Hardy historian Randy Skretvedt, who has occasionally loaned the soldier to museum exhibitions. The consignor’s grandfather was a high-ranking executive of Hal Roach Studios at the time the film was made and saved ten soldiers. The consigner brought five of these family owned soldiers to Antiques Roadshow where they were filmed for an episode that will air in 2020. The consignor stated at that time that her nieces own the other five soldiers and that she would pass the remaining five soldiers on to her son and grandson. This is the only soldier the family has chosen to sell.
Dimensions: 13.25"h (excluding bayonet)

- HAND PAINTED POLYCHROME HEAVY LEAD TOY
HAND PAINTED POLYCHROME HEAVY LEAD TOY SOLDIERSIncluded in this lot are hand painted polychrome heavy lead toy soldiers depicting the Napoleonic era. Forty-nine figures are horse mounted cavalry, sixty figures are infantry. For as long as there have been wars, children have loved to play with toy soldiers. The appeal of small military figures soared in the late 19th Century, but they’ve even been found in the tombs of ancient pharaohs. In the 18th century, advances in production saw toy soldiers made from tin, lead and composite. Primarily, they were designed for affluent members of society as they could afford hand-made products with fine detailing. In the late 19th century, more realistic figurines were produced in ceremonial dress to resemble various European military movements. These hand painted toy soldiers are in good overall condition, average height is between 2"-2.5".
