Dinky 171 Hudson Commodore Sedan. Scarce version in cream, maroon roof, red wheels. Very near mint/boxed. From the single owner from new collection in Buckinghamshire.
Notes
From a single-owner from new collection. Many of the pieces were bought new at the time and stored away until now.
This version was issued between 1954-56. Deep cream finish with a dark maroon roof and red ridged wheels. Large baseplate print. In all original condition throughout, and an extremely difficult find in this condition!
Surely one of only a handful that have survived in this close to pristine condition in the correct box.
Day-one lustrous finish, and un rubbed roof.

Do note that there is a (factory) additional sweep of cream paint on one side. Typical factory application – the colour match is perfect and the stroke of paint is boldly applied.
Very few tiny marks to the paint finish.
The correct pictorial box is complete, clean and crisp, showing minimal handling/age wear. No graffiti. Correct colour spot at the end flaps.
