Up for grabs is an awesome vintage SCHUCO model "Kommando Anno 2000" wind-up toy car. Includes the key.
The Kommando Anno 2000 tin-toy car is a futuristic design made by the German toy manufacturer, Schuco, between 1938 and 1941, and is said to have been modelled on the Maybach limousine. The car's name can be translated as 'command in the year 2000' and refers to the fact that the car can be activated by a loudly spoken voice command into the louvred vent in the roof. The air generated from speaking or blowing down onto a moveable leather flap or diaphragm under the vent starts or stops the car. It is typical of the numerous creative and inventive mechanical toys devised and patented by the founder of Schuco, Heinrich Muller. Please not, this feature hasn't been tested.
