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 Bentley model finished in a light metallic green shade with maroon interior, original silver details, steering wheel, and intact screen. Early issue with grooved spun wheels and white treaded tyres. Brown dashboard.
Note the baseplate is a scarce find since it is the standard English Dinky version, found on early versions. No mention of ‘Nicky Toys’.
The colourful correct box (ATAMCO P LTD. Calcutta) is complete, with quite a crisp feel and bright colours. Better than most Nicky Dinky Toys boxes!
