Basically the sister car to the Type 57 Atlantic, the Type 57 Atalante was first produced in 1936.
Only 17 Atalantes were produced ....
Although it's similar to my Type 57 Atlantic model, it's different enough to get one for the collection!
Got one of eBay for £31.19, so a bit over my self-imposed £25 limit (but I got quite a few models so far well below £25, so I was allowed by myself). Actually, this £31.19 is quite cheap, as I saw several other listings for exactly the same Franklin Mint model with starting bids or buy-it-now prices over £60.
As you can expect from a Franklin Mint model, it's of excellent quality (heavy and with plenty of detail).
#12 is a nice addition to the collection, for sure!
