Issued in 2019 by GLM, this is a very nice model of an iconic Cadillac style. A Limited Edition, #16 of 20 in Goddess Gold & Alpine White.

What a beautiful car and replica of it .....and in a superb color combination here. This GLM model is a standout ...... and those Dagmars (at any scale) are magnificent !

Another gem from GLM/Stamp. Years ago I would never have imagined such precise models being available in the numbers we see today.

I had not heard of that color in an LE of 20, but this one was also limited to 20 (I have #4). Maybe four times as many were made in Mountain Laurel with a black top, but I like the white top better regardless of the run quantity,

@mg-harv 

as with the Mountain Laurel, it came with a white top or a black top. I have both of them and got them from Tom Dirnberger. I only have the pink w/a black top.

Back when I was alive in the ‘50’s our next door neighbor traded up to a new Cadillac every two years or so.  He was a veterinarian and we helped pay for his new  Cadillacs as he took care of our collie dogs. I remember well his ‘56 hardtop coupe finished in yellow with a white top. Beautiful car. Nice replica of that car.
