Ferrari Tipo 500/F2 by Toschi (1952)

L: 22 inches (55 cm)

The Ferrari Tipo 500/F2 dominated the race circuits of Europe in 1952 and 1953, particularly in the hands of its great exponent, Alberto Ascari. His remarkable driving ensured Ferrari’s first ever World Championship in 1952, an achievement repeated in 1953.

To mark the occasion, a large scale toy was created in small numbers by Toschi of Milano, and we are pleased to offer the finest example we have ever seen, in mint, original condition.

The toy comes complete with exhaust cut outs, decals, spinners and steering wheel, and serves to remind us of a great milestone in the glorious career of Il Commendatore, Enzo Ferrari, and his first World Champion, Alberto Ascari.
