A while back I mentioned a pewter Alpine model I picked up at the Monterey
Historics.

I recently found the box, and have a source. The model was manufactured by
"Autosculpt Miniatures, hand made in Sheffield, England". The dealer who
sold it to me was:

Morris Manor Collections
5306 181 Court East
Sumner, Washington, USA 98390-8952

It has a pewter base cast in, and would make a great award or shelf
ornament.
