Folk Art Hand Made Simplex 1909 Model Car in Copper and Brass 1940s
About the Item
Folk Art Hand Made Simplex 1909 Model Car in Copper and Brass, United States, 1940s.
This is really something very special. A one-off model car, made by a skilled craftsman around the 1940s. Very detailed and refined, with lots of fantastic details - like all the handles and pipes on and underneath the car. Lifelike, very true to the original and exclusive Simplex from 1909. Made out of copper and brass, the material gained a wonderful patina over time, with hints of verdigris at various places.
Large size and therefore a true conversation piece on your desk, sideboard or table. It is signed with - presumably - the name of the maker.
