Description

A unique and important bronze car mascot of exceptional quality, by renowned sculptor Max Daniel Hermann Fritz (German, 1873–1948). The unusually large mascot depicts a speed god with the Mercedes-Benz three-pointed star emblem on his forehead, astride a lightning flash, flying above a globe which bears the artist's signature. Included with the mascot is a black hardwood base. No other example of this mascot is recorded in any of the accepted reference works on the subject.

Mascot length: 11 in. (28 cm). Base: 7 x 4 in. (18 x 10 cm). Overall height: 7.5 in. (19 cm).
