The color of this one looked a bit bland in pics but was really attractive in hand.  A very nice model by DM.

She is a beauty John, a little earlier than I collect except for customs, but I still appreciate their beauty. 💯

One of my favorites from Danbury! I sold a Black 40 when we relocated to AZ. Miss it every day!

    Thanks, John

Love all of the Mints' Tudors. FM did the'30 Tudors, in green and in blue. They also did the '33 in Dillinger livery. DM did this '40 and two '47's, although the tan was not authorized for release. Then they did the '49 Tudor.

@perrone1 Have them all Tony. The tan 48 was an out the backdoor purchase but I could never find a flaw in it.

me too except for the tan 48 'out the back door' version. I think there was one other 'out the back doors' special but cant think what it was. Wonder if there were any more one offs or prototypes that slipped out. 

Beautiful sunny day for those great shots John
