Dinky Toys 131 Cadillac Tourer
Cadillac Tourer by Dinky Toys, No. 131. Yellow version. Early issue with cream ridged wheels. Very, very near mint/boxed. From The Heart of England Collection.
Notes
Guaranteed to brighten up the dullest days! Issued between 1956-61, this version has a wonderfully vibrant primrose yellow finish, cerise interior, early issue example with cream ridged wheels and correct with no tail lights detailed. Complete with driver, steering wheel and intact original windscreen.
Smooth original tyres are well-shaped.
In totally authentic original condition (nearly always found with touch-ins) with a shiny baseplate. Hard to find with such a barely marked paint finish – particularly at those vulnerable rear wing tips!
Shiny base generally.
The (correct for this early issue) deep yellow pictorial box is bright and complete, with the correct colour spot. Light wear and a grubby mark or two. Small part-tear to an internal end flap.
