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.

A mint example finished in a rich metallic ed, with original silver details, white interior, steering wheel, and intact window glazing. Early issue with tyres and wheels with shiny silver wheel detail.
In mint condition:

N054p7521

N054p7522

Shiny black base with ‘D’ of DINKY TOYS" obliterated, product name and Indian Licensee details visible.

The colourful correct box (ATAMCO P LTD. Calcutta) is complete and clean. A very good example of this type of box. Happily free of the usual ‘white edges’ or heavy tears that plague these comparatively flimsy boxes. Little price label at an end flap.
