This chapter analyses Golden Age Automata exhibited in the International Expositions as fetish commodities and argues that consumers enjoyed the glamour of celebrity by purchasing them. French Golden Age automata are mimetic copies of popular performers of the day. An analysis of several key automata, such as those of Loïe Fuller, Little Tich, and Wild Buffalo Bill Cody, demonstrates how the automata display the fascination with performers in the era. The chapter also looks at the shift to electrical advertising automata at the turn of the twentieth century. In every case, the automata display the creators’ mimetic faculty at work.
