Notes
Indian Firm S. Kumar & Co. trading as Atamco. (1968-70). Often known as Indian-Dinky toys, the finish was poor in comparison_.
A close to mint example finished in silver , off-white interior, steering wheel. Original sliver details. Early issue with spun metal wheels and treaded tyres. NICKY TOYS and product details on base.
Chip on the bonnet.
The colourful correct box (ATAMCO P LTD. Calcutta) is complete and crisp, showing only the most minor wear Difficult to find in this condition.
A fascinating piece of Dinky history and well worth incorporating into your collection, these models have seen significant value increases over the past couple of years.
