Dinky Toys 131 Cadillac Tourer
Cadillac Tourer by Dinky Toys, No. 131. Yellow version. Early issue with cream ridged wheels. Very near mint/boxed. From The Reference 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.
Shiny baseplate. Hard to find a mark to the paint finish, although closest scrutiny find a couple of very small retouches. Need magnification and determination to find them.
The (correct for this early issue) deep yellow pictorial box is bright and complete, with the correct colour spot. A little age grubbiness and a very small edge tear.
