Leif Tapper was a true car enthusiast and one of Sweden’s largest and most well-known model car collectors.
For 25 years, he wrote numerous articles for Nostalgia magazine, where he covered new models and market news on the model car pages. He considered it very important to include information about the historical background of the cars, and thanks to his extensive automotive history library, he was always thoroughly well-informed.
He maintained contacts with collectors all over the world, and his exhibitions were highly appreciated — always presented around a theme, such as the 1955 Paris Motor Show.
Leif passed away in 2020, and his family has now decided that his collection will be sold. It is a truly unique collection, an exposition of his life’s work, carefully acquired over half a century.
Stadsauktion Sundsvall has been entrusted with the task of auctioning his collection. The collection will be sold in stages, often organized around different themes — entirely in Leif’s spirit.
It is now time for the eleventh stage, with the theme: Leif Tapper’s Model Car Collection – Trucks
