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 very close to mint Standard Herald model finished in bright metallic blue, off-white interior, black steering wheel, and intact window glazing. Version with one-piece wheels/tyres.
Shiny black base with ‘DINKY TOYS’ lettering, Dinky product number 134 and details clearly visible. Indian Licensee details visible.
Small flake of paint low down on one side.
The colourful correct box (ATAMCO P LTD. Calcutta) is complete and bright. Crisp feel. Light wear only.
