The first American horse-drawn hearse dates from the mid-19th century.

Scale : 1:12
The 1:12 scale is mainly used for models and miniatures like motorcycles. A model of motorcycle in the 1:12 scale will be 12 times smaller than the actual bike. If the motorcycle is 2.5 m in length, then the miniature will measure 8 inches / 20.8 cm in length (250/12 = 20.8). Figurines in the 1:12 scale are about 6 inches /15 cm high.
