P.T. 巴纳姆:奋斗与胜利·补录 188

P.T. 巴纳姆《奋斗与胜利》· Struggles and Triumphs · 领导

At this quinquennial exposition which I attended, he received a gold medal for his automata, and the best figure which he had on exhibition I purchased at a good round price. It was an automaton writer and artist, a most ingenious little figure, which sat at a table, and readily answered with the pencil certain questions. For instance: if asked for an emblem of fidelity, the figure instantly drew a correct picture of a handsome dog; the emblem of love was shown in an exquisite drawing of a little Cupid; the automaton would also answer many questions in writing. I carried this curious figure to London and exhibited it for some time in the Royal Adelaide Gallery, and then sent it across the Atlantic to the American Museum.

白话

乌丹的自动人偶在博览会上获金奖,巴纳姆花大价钱买下最好的一个:自动写字画画的玩偶,坐在桌前,能根据问题用铅笔画画。问“忠诚的象征”,它立刻画出逼真的狗;问“爱的象征”,画出精美的小爱神;还能用文字回答许多问题。巴纳姆把它带到伦敦皇家画廊展出,然后运到美国博物馆。这说明新奇展品要选有互动和惊喜的,并跨市场流通。
