Diecast model of a Saurer bus as used by the Swiss post in the 1940s and 1950s. This model was released in the late 1980s and was sold at about 50$ in Switzerland at that time. It is now very rare, but a Swiss company called Tek-Hoby has released several re-editions of similar Saurer buses since 2002.

Oct 26, 04 | 2:17 pmThis model is not for sale and has been obsolete for many years. But there is an improved re-edition of this Swiss post bus made by Tek-Hoby. See http://www.tekhoby.ch/tekhoby/saurer-metal.htm for pictures of various versions. The model is available at Swiss model car shops, e.g. Car43, Le Train Jouet, or Christian Frey Modellautos.
I'll buy one if you have it, or if you otherwise know where to purchase same.
