Philip Treece primarily collects most anything to do with conjuring and magicians. In fact, he's got an entire website dedicated to his massive collection. But that didn't stop him from picking up this super-cool vintage automaton that depicts a butcher making sausage.

Just a fluke of being at the right antique fair at the right time.
