D131
Dinky 131 Cadillac Tourer. Salmon pink version. Very near mint/boxed. From the Italian collection.
Notes
Issued between 1956-61, this version has a distinctive salmon pink finish, pale grey interior. Early issue example with cream ridged wheels. Complete with detailed driver, steering wheel and original intact windscreen.
Couple of little marks at the rear bumper over-riders, couple of small marks on the driver’s head and a little rough casting at the bonnet emblem.
Fine sheen to the paint finish with none of the usual rubbing at body lines make this a very fine display piece.
The box is complete, feels crisp, and has the correct colour spot. Minor storage/handling grubbiness and a couple of light creases. No graffiti.
