Description
; Production Run: 1907-35. Abundantly colorful and dynamically mobile, Lehmann’s imaginary amphibious race-car “UHU” was a smashing success from the moment it entered the toy market. Lehmann based his design on a curious rocket-shaped electric car named the “Jamais Contente”. In the spring of 1899, this remarkable car had been the first to drive more than 100 kmph. Please note Lehmann’s clever inclusion of fins for the tires. Presumably, this would have aided the car’s imagined movement in water. However, the toy doesn’t float and was intended for floor use only.
