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.
An excellent Triumph Vitesse model finished in Jade Green with a red-brown stripe, off-white interior, black steering wheel, and window glazing (crack to the rear screen). Early version, so separate wheels and tyres.
Shiny black base with ‘DINKY TOYS’ lettering, Dinky product number 134 and details clearly visible. Indian Licensee details visible.
Rather a rough casting and a few minor marks.
The rare early box with DINKY TOYS print is bright and complete. An early picture box (with cream background)and correct with ATAMCO P LTD. Calcutta on the underside.
A little of the usual wear and a tape re-enforcement to one tuck-in end flap.
