Circa 1955 SSS Japan “Tiny Giant Series” 1/32 scale tinplate BMW 501 “Baroque Angel” 4-door luxury sedan. This toy was gifted to me by a good friend, whose now-deceased parents purchased it new for his older brother, and it spent probably 50 years in an attic until it was given to me. While this isn’t the most pristine tinplate toy car, and the friction motor no longer operates, it’s a remarkable survivor, and is one of the nicest ones I’ve seen counting the numerous even more beat-up, incomplete examples on the internet.
