In addition to the mascots, Lot 111 at the auction also included two custom made cabinets specially configured to display the collection.

It was truly a &#8220;Doozie&#8221; **** and it made just $2000 less than the Lalique, coming all-in at $803,000.<\/p>\n<p>The stunning wrap up: What Rene Lalique created in glass as artful accessories, have now become more valuable than many of the very autos that his mascots were intended to accessorize! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>You can find links to all of the mascot resources here at THE Worldwide Gathering Place for R.Lalique Enthusiasts by visiting the <a href=\"\/rene-lalique-biography#car_mascots\"  target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\" >Lalique Car Mascots<\/span><\/a> section of the Rene Lalique Biography.<\/p>\n<p>*** 30 mascots is considered a complete collection.

However, after the appearance of the Duesenberg Automobiles, it&#8217;s use and meaning to designate anything remarkable, one of kind, or the unusual, was cemented into the American lexicon as the phrase became associated with the great motorcars. Today it&#8217;s sometimes spelled Duesy, Doosy and Doozy in addition to the spelling we use here.<\/p>\n<p>Photos: Michael Furman courtesy of RM Auctions<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A complete collection of the 30 Lalique Mascots *** sold at RM Auctions on March 10th for $700,000 plus a buyer&#8217;s premium of 15% or $105,000 for a total sale price for the great Lalique Glass Collection of $805,000.
