Models of Yesteryear Y-15/1; Models of Yesteryear Y-16/1; 1904 Spyker Tourer

Box notes: "This Dutch car will of course, be familiar to those thousands of people who saw the film ‘Genevieve’ it being selected as the opposition to the Darracq of that name. It has a four cylinder 2456 c.c. engine and the price in England in 19O4 was £460. Scale 45:1", We got the film shown at school as an end of term treat - which just goes to show how old I am.

This early MOY model was made from 1961 to 1968, it was a good seller so is not now that rare although some versions are hard to find and get a good price. The rarest is maroon and these are valued at well over £1,000 so if you find one hang on to it. The first releases were cream or pale yellow with grey tyres, these are both worth having, cream being better priced than pale yellow, the later bright yellow versions are of lower value..
