Nicky 120
Nicky 120 Jaguar 'E' Type. Light metallic green. Near mint/boxed. Scarce! From The Berlin Collection.
Notes
Sought-after models that are so difficult to find in good condition! Dinky dies were sold to the Indian Firm S. Kumar & Co. trading as Atamco. (1968-70). Often known as Indian-Dinky toys, the finish was poor in comparison.
This ‘E’ Type Jaguar model is finished in light metallic green with a detachable black hood (little edge nick. Original windscreen is intact.
Small flake of paint and a couple of smaller marks besides.
An early issue since the Dinky lettering on the baseplate is still partially visible with just the letters ‘DIN’ blanked out (so ‘KY’ and ‘TOYS’ still visible), as well as the original lettering ‘Jaguar ’E’ Type from Dinky. No reference to the Indian manufacturer made on the base of this early Nicky Toys model.
The box (to Nicky toys standard) displays typical wear with rubbing at edges and the occasional small tear but the colours are still vibrant and all end flaps are present.
