Antique early-20th Century working model of the Hacker Twin Cockpit Racing Runabout.

Made from rose wood and mahogany with brass and copper fittings, with three hatch doors, perspex windshields standing on a presentation base with two drawers and anchor shaped handles. On its own stand with two drawers and a dedicated name plaque to ”Jimmy”. A well made piece that is truly unique.
