Michael Jackson as Enesco collector

noreply@blogger.com (Musicboxdreams.net) — Sun, 31 May 2009 21:16:00 +0000

Michael Jackson as Enesco collector. Yesterday i was browsing the online pdf catalogs of the Michael Jackson's famous ex auction (now exibition) at Juliens.

Something captured my attention:

http://www.juliensauctions.com/auctions/2009/michael-jackson/catalog-list.html

Inside Session 6 , pages 142-150 , a huge lot of Enesco Small World of music animated musicals,inside the original Enesco displays with activators. These particular displays were originally made for retailers and were very expensive. All items of the Small World of music are now retired, but sometimes you finf them on ebay auction. I've posted some nice videos of them in action and very detailed pics, on the Musicboxdreams website . You can find pdf catalogs in the download area. These musicals were produced in China under authority of Enesco and it seems they stopped production bc of the rising costs. Some of them are made of 100s of hand assembled items. In my opinion these remains the more articulated and best musicals ever made.
