An unusually large earlier French automotive toy not only in size but visual appeal too! So many features of this toy with its lifelike portrayal in miniature form make this a stand-alone piece. The four detailed headlamps, click/clack hand starter crank, fabric covered chauffer’s seat, spoked rims w/rubber tires(replaced), fanciful roof edging to name just a few details this car possesses. Enameled in a deep red with a black upper passenger compartment & roof the vehicle has a rear opening door allowing access for the passengers. Overall the paint appears to be original excepting the rear opening door(door possibly of newer vintage). Often times French cars are overlooked or under appreciated but that should not be the case with this toy!
Item Dimensions: 15 -1/4" L.
