Leif Tapper was a true car enthusiast and one of our country's largest and most well-known model car collectors. He wrote many articles for the magazine Nostalgia over a 25-year period, where he shared news about new models and updates in the market on the magazine's model car pages. He considered it very important to include information about the historical background of the cars and was well-informed thanks to his own extensive library on motor history.
He always maintained contacts with collectors around the world, and his exhibitions were highly appreciated, always with a theme, such as the 1955 Paris Motor Show. Leif passed away in 2020, and now his family has decided to sell his collection. It's a completely unique collection, an exposition of his life's work, carefully acquired over half a century.
Stadsauktion Sundsvall has been entrusted with auctioning off his collection. We began by selling Mercedes and Porsche model cars last year. Now, a collection of Volvo and SAAB models is coming up. We will continue to auction the collection in stages, and soon there will be new exciting theme auctions - all in Leif's spirit
