Description
Custom-made vintage Wells Fargo Overland Concord stagecoach, approximately 1/2-scale, at 45″ high at the roof, 72″ long. Wheels are 27-1/2″ diameter. The wood wheels are rimmed with metal. Incredible detail, including tufted upholstery inside, hand-painted landscape scenes on inside walls, period-correct shock absorber and hand brake system. Entirely hand-painted, including lettering, U.S. Mail logo, etc. Appears to have been made as an advertising display piece, possibly commissioned by Wells Fargo, but no record of such a large model of this piece has been found. Weighs approximately 150-200 pounds. This item will need to be shipped by a packing company of your choice. We maintain a list of reliable shippers, or you may choose your own.
