AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Limited edition of 300 copies – your piece is individually numbered and comes with a certificate of authenticity signed by the artists — a major asset for any discerning collector.
• This piece is produced in Spur 1 scale (1:32), measuring approximately 82.4 cm in length, made of metal, plastic, and mixed materials. It is delivered in its original packaging, along with the certificate, a biography of the artists, and a presentation of the work.

The artists – OSGEMEOS (Gustavo & Otavio Pandolfo)
• This Brazilian twin duo has been a leading force in contemporary street art since the 1980s. Their work is known for its vibrant colors, dreamlike patterns, and figures that blend humanity and fantasy.
• Their art has been widely exhibited, including at the Hirshhorn Museum in Washington, D.C., where over 900 works were presented between September 2024 and August 2025 — including the prototype of this very wagon.
• Their passion for trains is reflected in this project, created during a residency at the Märklin factory in Göppingen: a full-scale painted wagon transformed into a miniature collectible artwork.

Project context
• The collaboration was launched in late March 2025. OSGEMEOS’ Message Wagons, available in both H0 and Spur 1 scales, were released through a limited raffle by Märklin from March 28 to April 11, 2025.

Delivered as a complete set: original packaging, certificate, artist biography, and presentation track.
• Extremely rare – only 300 units in total, strictly limited to one per collector and per scale via lottery.

OSGEMEOS now holds a prominent place in the contemporary art scene, with growing institutional recognition.
• A unique piece for train enthusiasts: merging artistic excellence with the high-quality standards of Märklin, a premium model railway brand.
• Signed certificate + numbered edition: ensures clear provenance, authenticity, and strong value on the collectors’ market.
