AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A truly exceptional item, this model of the American runabout FLYER class 135
Riva Collection
Two-seat competition model, hence its rarity
At 82 cm in length, it is very faithful to the original model. This one is entirely handmade from noble materials: genuine wood and marine upholstery in red leather, fittings in polished and gilded brass, varnished, custom-made by jewelers. Ten coats of varnish are applied to achieve excellent shine and depth of finish.
Bruce Crandall designed a large number of raceboats, of which this 1936 model is the best known.
Condition:
Complete set, however there are damages at the front and rear of the model, missing paint and varnish, see photos for more description
This can be restored by an enthusiast or a professional
The package will be very securely packed with double wrapping and shipped via Colissimo parcel service
Best of luck with the auction for this exceptional item that will delight collectors.
