Toy for boy. (UPDATE)

• 

We received this photo of a very crude toy Bugatti T 35. Has anyone seen this specific model before, anywhere?

Now it may be clear to anybody that there must be thousands of models of Bugatti T35 toys. To collect toy T35's can be a hobby on its own. And not only for the superwealthy. Check this US$ 11 specimen at TinManTinToys.com

UPDATE by Jaap 'Molsheim' Horst:" The model shown is very well known, and has been for sale in various countries, including the Netherlands. Though it looks somewhat like a Bugatti, maybe even a T59, it is of course entirely wrong. Main thing (even for a "artistic model" is that the radiator is too far forward (or the front wheels are set too far back). Of course also the wheels are wrong, and various other details. I do not know where the model comes from."
