FERRARI TESTAROSSA

General Information: The Ferrari Testarossa is the only large scale car (1:14) that is not signed "Daum France". It is however, signed "Creation Claude Nicolas Paris", and hence part of the Claude Nicolas collection. While there is no doubt this car was manufactured by Daum in it's regular production facilities, there is no information as to why this car was not signed by Daum. Some collectors have attributed the manufacturer of this car to Kan International. In actual fact, Kan International was most likely a Daum wholesaler who re-packaged these cars under their own name. See below for a picture of a Testarossa box that shows Kan International on the side. It is not clear if Kan was the only seller of these cars or if other Testarossas were sold in actual Daum boxes or in yet another packaging variation. I do have a car accessory catalog which lists the Testarossa for sale and it clearly states the car is make by Daum. The Testarossa is also the only large scale car to have clear tire treads rather than the normal frosted. See pic below.
