VINTAGE PHILIPP NIEDERMEIER, TIN CLOCKWORK OVERTAKING RACE CARS. W/BOX
Item History & Price
HERE I AM OFFERING A VERY, VERY RARE, FULLY TIN, FULLY FUNCTIONAL/OPERATIONAL PHILIPP NIEDERMEIER, CLOCKWORK DRIVEN, "OVERTAKEN RACE CARS" WHICH IS STILL IN ORIGINAL OPERATIONAL CONDITION!
LUIOB = LIGHTLY USED IN ORIGINAL BOX.
HAVING HUNDREDS OF MODEL CARS TO CHOOSE FROM, MOSTLY PORSCHE AND CORVETTES, I HAVE DECIDED TO START LISTING SOME OF THESE HERE ON E-BAY. 95% OF THESE ARE ONE-OF-A-KINDS LISTINGS AND I WILL DO MY BEST TO SHOW YOU AN ARRAY OF PICTURES AND DESCRIBE THEM TO ...THE BEST OF MY ABILITY. THIS NIEDERMEIER CLOCKWORK RACE CAR SET IS NO EXCEPTION TO THIS RULE!
THIS NIEDERMEIER OVERTAKEN RACE CARS IS MADE OUT OF PRESSED TIN OR METAL. ALL OF THE GRAPHICS YOU SEE HERE ARE DONE VIA TIN LITHOGRAPHY AND ARE HERE TO STAY!
THIS CAR SET WORKS PERFECTLY AND IS A REALLY COOL CAR TO WATCH IN ACTION!
THE BODY OF THESE CARS HAS NO DIMPLES, CREASES, RUST OR CORROSION .. THE TIN LITHOGRAPHY IS SHARP AND CLEAN.
THE CHASSIS DO HAVE SOME LIGHT SPYDERING AS THIS IS DUE TO THE FACT THAT THEY DID NOT CLEAN OFF ALL OF THE CHEMICALS THAT THEY USED DURING THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT BACK IN THE 1950'S FOLKS DID NOT HAVE THE UNDERSTANDING OF CHEMICAL REACTIONS OF SIMILAR MATERIALS THAT WE DO TODAY. ALSO KEEP IN MIND THAT I AM NOT REPRESENTING THIS AS NOS (NEW OLD STOCK), BUT, AS A USED VINTAGE MODEL/TOY!
THIS RACE CAR SET HAS A CLEVER AND WELL THOUGHT OUT HARD WIRE (LINKAGE) WHICH GUIDES THE SLAVE RACE CAR (THE UNIT WITHOUT THE CLOCKWORK DRIVE... THE BLUE CAR) TO CONSTANTLY CIRCLE THE RACE CAR WITH THE CLOCKWORK DRIVE (THE RED CAR). THE DRIVE SHAFT WHICH CONNECTS THE LINKAGE TOGETHER IS THE KEY TO THIS SETS ACTION.
AS YOU WILL NOTICE WITHIN THE PICTURES, THAT THE TIRES ARE ALL TURNED TO ONE WAY ... VERY SLIGHTLY. THIS ALLOWS AND FORCES THE CARS TO TURN IN THE SAME DIRECTION WITH THE CLOCKWORK DRIVEN CAR (THE RED CAR) HAVING THE TIRES TURNED MORE SO THEN THE BLUE CAR.... AGAIN ALLOWING THE BLUE CAR TO DO 360 DEGREE CIRCLES AROUND THE RED CAR.
THE CLOCKWORK DRIVE IS VERY STRONG AND FULLY ORIGINAL AND THIS SET WORKS REALLY NICELY.
THIS VEHICLES MEASURES OUT AT ABOUT: 4.75 INCHES X 1.75 INCHES X 1.5 INCHES TALL (12CM X 4.5CM X 4CM TALL). CONNECTED, THIS SET IS ABOUT 9.75 INCHES (25CM) IN TOTAL LENGTH.
THE WHEELS ARE MADE OF A RUBBER/PLASTIC AND ARE SLIGHTLY PLIABLE. YOU HAVE NO CRACKS, SPLITS OR FLAT SPOTS ON ANY OF THESE TIRES. YOU WILL NOTICE THAT THE CLOCKWORK DRIVEN CAR (THE RED ONE) HAS DIFFERENT TIRES/TREADS THEN THE SLAVE CAR (THE BLUE ONE). THIS IS 100% ORIGINAL AND ONE CAN ONLY ASSUME THAT THIS WAS DONE TO ENHANCE THE PERFORMANCE OF BOTH OF THE VEHICLES INVOLVED.
ONCE AGAIN, THE CLOCKWORK DRIVE IS POWERFUL AND WITH A GOOD WINDING, YOU'LL GET PLENTY OF ACTION ON A GOOD SIZE LEVEL HARD FLOOR.
YOU ALSO HAVE THE ORIGINAL BOX HERE WHICH IS A VERY NICE EXAMPLE THAT HAS NO ADDED TAPE OR GLUE. ALL OF THE SMALLER INNER FLAPS ARE STILL ORIGINALLY ATTACHED. YOU ALSO HAVE ALL OF THE FRAIL LOCKING TABS ON THE END STILL PRESENT AND ORIGINAL. YOU DO HAVE A SMALL PUNCTURE ON ONE OF THE SIDES DUE TO THE DESIGN OF THE LINKAGE.
I DO ASK THAT YOU INSPECT MY PICTURES THOROUGHLY AS THESE DO BECOME A VERY IMPORTANT PART OF MY DESCRIPTION HERE! IF YOU'D LIKE TO SEE ANY PARTICULAR AREA OR FEATURE CLOSE UP, SIMPLY CONTACT ME AND LET ME KNOW WHAT IT IS YOU'D LIKE TO SEE MORE OF AND I'LL TAKE IT FROM THERE!
BY MY STANDARDS AND POLICIES, I VERY RARELY DO NOT TEST WHAT IT IS I AM OFFERING HERE ON E-BAY. AFTER ALL JUST HOW DIFFICULT IS IT TO TEST A MODEL? ALL ONE NEED DO IS TO TOSS IN A FEW BATTERIES AND GIVE IT A GO, OR A SIMPLE PUSH TO SEE IF THE FRICTION DRIVE IS WORKING! I AM NOT ONE OF THOSE SELLERS WHO WILL EVER SAY "THIS MODEL IS UNTESTED AND AS SUCH IT IS SOLD IN AS IS CONDITION" OR , "I HAVE NOT TESTED THE WIND-UP MECHANISM (CLOCK-WORK) AS I DO NOT HAVE A KEY, SO THIS WILL BE SOLD UNTESTED". THIS NIEDERMEIER CLOCKWORK OVERTAKEN RACE CAR SET MODEL NUMBER 260 IS FULLY TESTED (AND WORKS PERFECTLY) AND WILL BE FULLY TESTED ONCE MORE, JUST PRIOR TO SENDING IT OFF. I DO THIS TWICE, JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT THE FIRST TESTING WAS NOT A FLUKE! I AM SURE WE BOTH DO NOT WANT ANY ISSUES HERE AND THIS IS ONE EASY STEP TO AVOID ANY!
I TAKE PRIDE IN MY MODELS THAT I OFFER HERE IN THE E-BAY WORLD. I DO HAVE OPTIONS AND I CHOOSE TO OFFER ONLY THE VERY FINEST THAT I HAVE AVAILABLE.
ALL-IN-ALL YOU WILL BE VERY, VERY HARD PRESSED TO LOCATE ANOTHER NIEDERMEIER MODEL NUMBER 260 THAT LOOKS LIKE AND WORKS LIKE THIS ONE DOES! ADD TO THIS THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE THE ORIGINAL BOX (IN ACCEPTABLE SHAPE/CONDITION) AND NOW YOU HAVE SOMETHING THAT ANY COLLECTOR WOULD BE PLEASED AND PROUD TO ADD TO THEIR PRIVATE COLLECTION!!
ONCE AGAIN, PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT THESE PICTURES AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR DESIRE ADDITIONAL PICTURES, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME VIA E-BAY MESSAGING AND I WILL DO THE REST!
THIS FULLY WORKING VINTAGE, TIN NIEDERMEIER CLOCKWORK RACE CAR SET IS AN EXCELLENT EXAMPLE OF A MODEL AND OF AN ERA THAT HAS LONG PASSED US BY.
THIS IS A RELATIVELY NEW STORE FOR ME HERE ON E-BAY, BUT, I COME WITH A WELL OILED AND POLISHED TRACK RECORD! I AM CURRENTLY (NOT ON THIS ACCOUNT ... YET!!) A GOLD T/RATED POWER~SELLER WITH OVER 7 YEARS OF THIS STATUS BACKING ME. I SPECIALIZE IN PRIMARILY THE AUTOMOTIVE FIELD AND I CONCENTRATE WITH/ON PORSCHE, BENTLEY, AUDI AND "PORSCHE DESIGN" ITEMS/ACCESSORIES.
I HAVE A UPS ACCOUNT AND MOST OF MY OFFERINGS HERE SHALL BE SENT THAT WAY. I PACK EACH AND EVERY ITEM MYSELF AND DO SO AS IF I WERE RECEIVING IT. ALL OF MY DOMESTIC SHIPMENTS WILL BE INSURED FOR THE SELLING PRICE. I ENTER THE SHIPPING DATA DAILY INTO BOTH E-BAY AND PAYPAL. THIS NIEDERMEIER MODEL NO. 260 WILL BE SENT VIA THE USPS AND WILL BE FULLY INSURED.
FOR MY INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENTS, THIS WILL BE SENT VIA EBAY'S "GLOBAL SHIPPING PROGRAM" (GSP), AS PROOF OF DELIVERY IS REQUIRED. UTILIZING THIS METHOD TO OBTAIN ONES SIGNATURE IS ADVANTAGEOUS TO "WE THE SELLERS". UNFORTUNATELY, I HAVE HAD MY FARE SHARE OF SCRUPULOUS BUYERS HERE ON EBAY. BY UTILIZING THIS METHOD ELIMINATES SOME OF THE ISSUES WHICH MIGHT ARISE FROM INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENTS.
PLEASE NOTE: THAT I WILL HAVE TO INSURE THIS PARCEL FOR IT'S SELLING PRICE. AS SUCH, IT MUST BE DECLARED FOR IT'S SELLING VALUE. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY TAXES, DUTIES, IMPORT FEES OR ASSESSMENTS WHICH MIGHT BE LEVIED OR ACCESSED FROM ANY FOREIGN GOVERNMENT AT, OR PRIOR TO THE TIME OF DELIVERY. SO PLEASE BE PREPARED FOR THIS ON YOUR END! KEEP IN MIND THAT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DECLARE AN ITEM FOR $30.00 AND THEN TURN AROUND AND INSURE IT FOR $300.00.
IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH THIS, I STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT YOU PASS ON THIS AS I DO NOT NEED ANOTHER INTERNATIONAL BUYER WHO DOES NOT TAKE THE TIME TO READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS, BUT, YET TAKES THE TIME TO LEAVE BADLY PLACED FEEDBACK DUE TO THEIR IGNORANCE!
I ALSO ENCOURAGE AND ASK YOU TO TAKE A LOOK AT THE POSTAGE STAMP (IF THE USPS IS USED) ONCE YOU RECEIVE THE PARCEL FROM ME. I MAKE NO MONEY ON THE POSTAGE AND IN FACT, THIS USUALLY ENDS UP COSTING ME MONEY! BUT, IF YOU OVER-PAY ME BY ONE DOLLAR OR MORE THEN THE ACTUAL COST OF POSTAGE, I ALWAYS AND INSTANTLY REFUND 100% OF THE DIFFERENCE WITHOUT EVER HAVING TO BE ASKED! IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEM PAYING WHAT IT COSTS TO RECEIVE THIS BEAUTIFUL AND WORKING, VINTAGE TIN NIEDERMEIER CLOCKWORK OVERTAKEN RACE CAR SET FROM ME IN A TIMELY AND SAFE MANNER, THEN ONCE AGAIN, I STRONGLY SUGGEST AND ASK THAT YOU PASS ON THIS.
