Dinky 161 Austin Somerset Saloon. Scarce cream & black issue. Early issue with smooth tyres. Very near mint/boxed. From The Cumbrian Collection.
Notes
This is the sought after late two-tone issue made towards the end of the run 1956-59. In authentic and original condition throughout with a pleasing lustre to the paint finish. Correct that this early issue does not have the rear light detail or silver numberplate. Correct smooth tyres.
Occasional tiny mark only. None of the usual rubbing to the roof, or chipping front and rear.
The box is complete and bright. Light age/handling wear includes slight grubbiness and a very small tear.
