General Information: One of the rare Daum cars, the Aston Martin DB5 was designed in the larger 1:12 scale, and produced only in a limited edition of 250 pieces. As one of the later Daum cars produced, the DB5 was shipped in Daum's shoebox style box. It came with a certificate of Authenticity that was also numbered to match the car. This car was also designed by Xavier Froissart. I have now verified the actual edition size of the Aston Martin DB5, with some help from people in high places! Only 84 Aston Martin DB5's were actually produced and sold by Daum.

I am very pleased to have S/N 1/250 in my collection. This car is not only signed "Daum France", but also signed by the designer as "X. Froissart", and is further annotated as the first Artist's Example by the designation "1 EA". I have added additional pictures below showing Xavier Froissart's signature and the EA designation. For further information about EA cars, see my Daum Automobiles page. I have also included the original invoice, and Cert of Authenticity for S/N 11/250 that I owned previously.
