MANHATTAN

Manhattan is a combination piece containing a clock, a relief car, and the Manhattan Skyline, all combined together in one unique design. This piece actually came in 3 versions, depending on the color of the clock's faceplate. This piece is generally considered an integral part of any Daum Automobile collection that includes the relief cars. This is a very striking piece that is generally a favorite of anyone who has it. I am currently lucky enough to have 2 Manhattan pieces, one with a gold clock and one with a silver clock. The piece with the silver clock is an "EA" piece that was signed by Xavier Froissart, and is serial number 2 EA.

A total of 209 Manhattans were actually produced and sold by Daum, making this piece in the same rarity level as the convertibles.

This piece is 9.5'' in length.

This piece is in excellent condition, is properly signed Daum France, and the clock actually still works!

PRICE: SOLD with gold face on clock

PRICE: $1150, #EA2 with silver face on clock

JAGUAR MK II - EA 1

Here is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own the very first Jaguar MK II off the production line.

The Jaguar MK II is one of the largest and heavest of the cars designed by Daum. Also it is signed both "Daum France" and "EA 1 X. Froissart". This was a numbered limited edition car with a maximum edition size of 250, although in actual fact only 93 MK ii's were actually manufactured. One of the harder to find Daum cars, the MK II was designed in 1:12 scale, and is 15" long.

According to Xavier Froissart, this car is also S/N 001/250 although it is not so marked on the car itself.

Before Daum formally decided to create a line of crystal cars, several concept cars were designed and actually built on a very limited basis (1 to 3 units total each). Of these prototype cars, one of each went to Xavier Froissart, which were then signed by him personally (similar to EA cars, but these were not so marked as EA's). It is not known if any other examples of each prototype still exist, as they were probably recycled. Typically the prototypes did not have quite as many details molded into them as did the full production cars.

These unique Daum prototypes, which were the very first trial examples of various car models Xavier Froissart began creating for Daum, were made primarilly in 1983.

These are signed X. Froissart, but not with the Daum France trademark. Prototypes, being trial models, were not signed by Daum. They are unique historic pieces showing the first steps in the creation of the crystal car concept for Daum.

The prototypes consisted of:

Coupé XF 1, 21 cm long, 1983
Monoplace Grand Sport, 19 cm long, 1983
Futura 1, 20 cm long, 1983, a three-wheeled invention of Xavier
America Bas-Relief plaque, 25 cm long, 1987
Riviera coupé, 38 cm (full size) the very first unique prototype of the model, 1983

This Riviera was a hollow sculpture (without the interior sanded seats and engine) but with sanded parts on the sides, tyres, flancs. It was later developed into the Riviera model.

MONOPLACE GRAND SPORT CONCEPT CAR

The Monoplace Grand Sport concept car was one of 5 concept or prototype cars that Xavier Froissart created for Daum management in order to sell the idea of crystal cars. These cars were actually produced by Daum in extremely low quantities (1 - 3 units each). The Monoplace Grand Sport is personally signed by Xavier and is believed to be the only one of its kind still in existance. This car was loosly the initial inspiration for the larger Monoplace LeMans.

The car itself is 9'' in length. Scale 1:20

This piece is in excellent condition and comes with the solid nameplate (not shown).
