This is the Franklin Mint 1935 Auburn 851 Speedster Collectors Club Limited Ed. in 1:24 scale W/ Box & Papers.
The 1935 Auburn 851 Speedster was a stunning blend of art deco elegance and cutting-edge performance, instantly recognizable by its swooping, boat-tail rear and dramatic flowing fenders. What truly set it apart was its supercharged straight-eight engine, capable of reaching 100 mph—a remarkable feat for the era—and each car came with a factory-issued certificate of its tested top speed. Designed by Gordon Buehrig, the 851 Speedster wasn't just fast; it was a rolling sculpture that offered luxury, innovation, and raw power, outshining many contemporaries with both its styling and performance pedigree.
