A month or so ago, Keko posted photos of new models recently added to his collection. All of his selections were excellent choices and very fine models. One of them, however, really caught my eye having a bit of an interest in the Minerva auto brand. As it often happens when another member posts photos of an interesting model, I go looking for one of mine own. Found one.
1930 Minerva AL 3-Position Cabriolet by Van den Plas - Limited Edition, 1 of 333, ATC-2030

Hi John,
Your Minerva reminded me that I had one too, proudly displayed with other favorites in my office.
This model is by Z&Z Exclusive Modell which may have been produced in Russia, and which I purchased in 2007. Beautifully detailed, this plain Jane beige commoner is a real stunner up close. My collection is not available to me at the moment or I would have taken a few closeups for you.

Looks great. I like that, never heard of it though or the company you say makes it.

That is a very nice model made by a company I also never knew. Is the model resin, white metal, or something else?

My inventory shows ZZ but when I looked it up I was unable to locate ZZ, but did find Z&Z Exclusive Modell, and thought that I was possibly sloppy when entering the entry. Many thanks for locating the model, builder, and location.
