AUTO UNION: Manufactured from 1935 by the company Mahle (MAHLE KOMM. GES STUTTGART, originally Elektrometall GmbH) from magnesium injection molding, a sensation at the time as this process had only been available since 1925. The model is completely original (also the wheels & color), with Auto Union emblem. If I were to write here about all the information I have researched in recent years about this model (why MAHLE as an electrical metal company only built the Auto Union model, etc.).
Key data lithographed racing car double garage:
Manufacturer is probably Gely (Levy George, Nuremberg).
Very special racing car lithograph, on one side with the Auto Union (start no. 5) and Mercedes Silver Arrow (start no. 15), on the other a Mercedes Silver Arrow making a pit stop at the gas pump. Original door latch.
Manufactured in the 1930s, marked MADE IN GERMANY.
The car is sold with the garage. Total 2 Items.
