The car offered here, chassis no.
655, is the earliest known example of the company’s most famous and prestigious model, the Tipo 8A.
As one of the earliest Tipo 8As produced, its styling bore much resemblance to the preceding Tipo 8, including the design of the fenders, flat single-bar bumpers, and nautical-style cowl vents, indicating that a styling transition was still in-process.
It was bodied by Cesare Sala of Milan, one of Italy’s premiere coachbuilders and one with a very close relationship to Isotta Fraschini, as Oreste Fraschini, a member of the founding family, occupied a seat on Sala’s board.
According to Isotta historian Angelo Tito Anselmi, in his famous book on the marque, the car was recorded as being sold to Filippo Bolzari of Milan.
Further recent research by historian Jonathan Sierakowski has confirmed that Bolzari, owner of the Hotel Metropole et Monopole of Milan, had the car first registered on 29 September 1927 with license plate number MI 11753.
