Description
Franklin Mint Precision Diecast Model
Wells Fargo Overland Stagecoach
1:16 scale. Length: 11". Height: 7 1/4"
Before the transcontinental railroad and the automobile, there was the overland stagecoach. It connected the burgeoning towns of the western frontier, delivering its cargoes of gold, company payrolls, the mail, and the brave men and women who settled the West. This scale model is a fitting tribute to their tenacious spirit -- and to the distinguished history of Wells Fargo.
Wells Fargo was established in San Francisco by Henry Wells and William Fargo as a banking and express operation on March 18, 1852. It was the peak of the Gold Rush, a period of fervid speculation, investment, and fortune-seeking, and Wells Fargo offered miners a rock of stability with a variety of banking and express services.
Assembled by hand from more than 150 separate parts. Rich with authentic details. From the driver and "shotgun" seats to the spoked wheels, realistic interior, leather window shades and graphics. Stagecoach includes a scale-size strongbox, shotguns and luggage.
The Franklin Mint offers a wide range of high quality, ready-made, diecast models. Every model is crafted with meticulous attention to detail using specifications of the original vehicle. Franklin Mint models are built with precision-made diecast metal and some non-metal components.
The Wells Fargo 4-Horse Team is sold separately
