Dinky 131
Dinky 131 Cadillac Tourer. Extremely scarce CREAM version. Very near mint/boxed. Late issue with SPUN WHEELS, treaded tyres and tinplate baseplate. In PLAIN box. From The Berkshire Collection.
Notes
Finished in cream, this model is distinctly different from the standard salmon pink variant.
Note the even colour shade throughout, including the edge of the shiny and fresh tinplate baseplate (late issue).
Interior is standard pale grey with driver, fawn steering wheel and treaded tyres. Intact original windscreen too. None of the usual marks at exposed points front and rear, this example presents very well indeed with just a few mere dots only. Obviously, never played with, this model looks as if it has been tucked away for a very long time.
The plain red and yellow box is bright and complete, with a little of the usual handling wear. Note the intriguing ‘Washington’ stamp on the box underside, with a partial address visible including the word ‘Films’.
