The item is a German A7V Tank “Mephisto” Nameplate Tile accessory, designed for customizing brick-built vehicles.
“Mephisto” Tank Name Printed Tile This is a custom printed grey flat tile (rectangular shape). It features the name “Mephisto” printed in a white, hand-painted style font across the center. The font is designed to mimic the rough, hand-applied paint used by tank crews in the field to personalize their vehicles.
Background: This part is a specific historical detail for the A7V Sturmpanzerwagen. “Mephisto” (Chassis No. 506) is the most famous A7V tank in history because it is the only surviving example of a World War I German tank left in the world. It was disabled and abandoned at the Battle of Villers-Bretonneux in 1918, then captured by Australian troops who dragged it back to friendly lines as a war trophy. Today, the real “Mephisto” is displayed at the Queensland Museum in Australia. This tile allows you to build a historically accurate replica of this specific legendary tank.
