There is an old saying, "It knocked my socks off", and when I opened the envelope that revealed this Caddy, I understood that old saying.  Danbury Mint was good at doing that!  Here is a model that has ELITE and SUPERBNESS oozing from each image in the brochure.  The color alone is enough to make it a "Must Have" model, but seeing and holding the actual model emotes images of an eclectic time of our youth.  And those "Shark" like tail-fins and "Split" rear bumper make it make it different and unique like no other American full-size automobile offered in Fifty-Seven.  You don't have to be a Cadillac lover to want this car in your collection!  I'm glad it's in mine!

Danbury Mint presents the...

Oh yea, the green/white version!  Danbury Mint was so at the top of their game at this time.  Each model seemed to outdo the one before it.  Man, we were lucky to have been along for the ride.
