This is one of my favorite Brooklin models and since it was offered in three color combinations, my collection was well served. Then in late 2022, Brooklin issued another slightly different variation in the NB Center series. The beige, although both listed as Palamino Beige is a slight shade different on the newest release. It is said that the NBC model is closer to the actual color than the previous version. Either way, they are exceptional models.

A fantastic model indeed, John!
You mention 3 colors prior to the NB Center version. I'm aware of the two-tone grey and the original beige/brown, what was the third color?
I was fortunate to have recently obtained the NB Center version with the help of one of our fellow members here. I think it's the perfect display-mate to Brooklin's '42 Oldsmobile. The WWII-era blackwalls add to the realism!

Both those DeSotos from Brooklin look superb. Either subtle color alternative is extremely attractive and you really can't go wrong with this beauty.
