Description from the seller

Lot of 3 vintage tin cars
JNF Perfekt U.S. Zone Germany + 2 large 1950s models

Three tin cars with just the right stance. Not polished. Not new. Full of age, metal, patina and post-war charm.

The small burgundy-red car is the star with papers:

JNF Perfekt
Josef Neuhierl
Made in U.S. Zone Germany
D.R.P. angem.
Germany, circa 1945–1949

A lovely early post-war piece of German tin toy. Small, sturdy and collectible. That U.S. Zone Germany marking immediately makes it interesting for enthusiasts of German tin toy design, occupation zone toys and early post-war production.

Additionally the lot contains two larger tin cars with full 1950s styling:

A large red convertible with blue interior
A turquoise sedan with white tires and chrome-colored details

The red convertible has pure boulevard allure. Low, long and just dramatic enough. The turquoise sedan is calmer, but just as stylish. Think pastels, chrome, white tires and old display-case glory.

Together they form a charming lot for collectors of tin cars, wind-up cars, postwar toys and vintage tin toys. The JNF gives the lot historical depth. The two large models complete the image, color and show.

Condition
All three cars are vintage and used. You see paint wear, scratches, patina, small dents, signs of aging and wear on chrome-colored parts. The red convertible shows visible damage/dent formation at the front. The turquoise sedan shows signs of use and wear on the trim details. The JNF Perfekt shows signs of use, but the markings are legible.

Important
All three cars have not been tested. Function unknown. They are offered as decorative collectible objects, with no guarantee of mechanical operation.

Photos are an integral part of the description and give a full picture of state, details and character.

If you’re reading this and thinking ‘that’s for me’, you’re in luck.

Seller's Story

We are Mies and Nuno from Cherry Picking. Crazy about items with character and a soul. What started as a shared love for vintage has grown into a mission: to rescue forgotten pearls from oblivion and give them a second life. From distinctive furniture to stylish finds — everything is carefully selected, refurbished, and offered with a wink. Not perfect, but just right. We scour, search, select, and pass on. Why buy new when it can be more beautiful and sustainable? Cherry Picking stands for: • Vintage with a story • Sustainable, quirky, and stylish • Selected with heart and eye. Our style? Retro with an edge. Think: a touch of Hollywood Regency, a hint of brocante, and always with flair. Everything too beautiful to leave behind ends up here.
