Information
Large saloon car of the Italian Alcyon brand in approximately 1/18th scale.
This toy was made of heavy painted brass plate and operated by spring, unlike other models of the same brand that featured an electric motor with a device that allowed it to travel on a special double rail.
The Alcyon brand was only in business for a few years, which is why its toys had a very limited circulation and are very rare. This particular model is even more so given its wind-up mechanism.
