Please keep watch on my other listings, as i will have a number of my old tinplate vehicles up for sale over coming weeks. OROBR PACKARD HARDTOP TOURING CAR....
Now over 90 years old. Bit over 9 inches length. WONDERFULLY DETAILED MODEL, OF THE CLASSIC PACKARD. Attractive green with contrasting orange/black detailing.
Original interior/detailed seating and steering wheel... Dash panel still displays "OROBR MADE IN GERMANY". Packard named grill, still with fragile moto meter radiator mascot... Clockwork motor will still carefully wind up... Spin wheels aloft and move car forward nicely.I'VE OWNED THIS PIECE LONG TIME NOW, SINCE ESTATE SALE OF ORIGINAL OWNER... RAREST OF CARS IS JUST AS I ACQUIRED IT, NEVER CLEANED... SAT IN CABINET WITH OTHER CARS. I've looked for other examples, but have yet to see another 1920's Orobr the same as this.....
You seldom see any of the Orobr Packards from this series.... The sedan or the open touring car. Almost antique toy now, it still displays so nicely..... But showing some expected ageing and play wear....With odd dimple, scuff, scratch, oxide marking and tarnishing etc... Bit of old paint crazing to black fender running boards.... The front window frame posts appear secured to front roof with ancient wire fixing?
And one of the two rear bumper mounting tabs, has worn away over time... Bumper will still sit in place on remaining one... Rear spare sits freely in its holding/support brackets. I HAVE DOZENS OF IMAGES....
PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU REQUIRE MORE, AND I WILL SEND... I'VE ADDED ALL THE IMAGES I CAN HERE, TO HOPEFULLY SHOW THE HONEST/ACCURATE CONDITION.....
