Hi Mike,

No, I don't think a 1950 can be called a Golden Anniversary model. Packard started in 1899 so 1949 would be the anniversary, even though comparable 1950 models only differ in vehicle number. To some the "true" anniversary cars are the drive-away cars painted in the special (code R as I recall) gold paint.
