Tekno No-850 Volvo PTT Swiss Coach
Tekno No-850 Volvo PTT Switzerland Bus, a beautiful scale model representing the iconic Swiss Post bus. This model, produced in 1960, pays tribute to the reliability and functionality of Volvo buses used in Switzerland for postal and passenger transport. The Volvo PTT (Post, Telephone and Telegraph) buses were known for their robust construction and became a familiar sight on Swiss roads.
The Tekno No-850 is a detailed representation of this bus, with distinctive elements such as the PTT logo and the bright yellow colour that are typical of Swiss Post vehicles. This particular example is in nice condition, with some signs of wear consistent with its age. However, there are two small cracks in the windshield, which do not significantly affect the overall appearance of the model, but which should be mentioned.
This model is a valuable addition for collectors of vintage scale models and Volvo history enthusiasts. It offers a fascinating insight into the role of Volvo buses in Switzerland's postal and passenger transport services and the high standards that were maintained at the time.
A wonderful piece of automotive history that celebrates not only the love of models and brands, but also Switzerland's rich transport history.
