Hello! I am hoping someone might be able to tell me if they can recall any books about Robert-Houdin that contains more than a brief mention of the two automata that he performed with by the names of Auriol and Debureau. Auriol, I believe was an acrobat on a chair while Debureau (again, I believe) was a version of a Dancing Harlequin. I am hoping somewhere in all of the books written on Robert-Houdin, one might contain a line drawing or a bit more info as to their performances.
Thank you!!
