Dinky Toys 161 Austin Somerset Saloon
Austin Somerset Saloon by Dinky Toys, No. 161. SKY BLUE issue. Very, very near mint/boxed. From The Island Collection.
Notes
Re-numbered from 40J in 1954, this Austin Somerset Saloon Dinky model has such a pleasing light sky blue finish with mid-blue ridged wheels and a bright baseplate.
Fine original silver detailing at radiator, bumpers and headlights. ‘161’ stamped on the base. Virtually mint condition.
The dual-numbered box is complete and bright, showing a little age grubbiness. Correct early blue colour spot.
