US ZONE HWN ORIGINAL DREAM CAR



Woodsy,

Here's a piccy of the HWN Dream Car I mentioned. 

Made in US-Zone Germany by Heinrich Wimmer (Nürnberg) ca. 1950. As you may notice, the driver of the car is male but on the box female. 

Way cool!

    Actually Arto, I think the figure in the car toy is female too.
    That looks like a 1950s woman's coat she's wearing to me.

      And I took her for a man in a dandy scarf and long overcoat! Even cooler! Thanks Mish.

    I must admit Arto I agree with Mish.

    I stand corrected, Woodsy. Never been too good at telling sexes apart anyway I'm afraid ;-)

    I love the colour and design of this futuristic toy car from the past. The box art is so evocative of the era. Great to see it here, Arto :)

    Thanks Tony, I am pleased that you fancy it like I do. There are many versions of this car that I am still looking for. I'll keep on dreamin' about them!

    Composition or some kind of hard plastic, Hugh. I'll check again & get back to you once I return from a short sejour.
