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. Earliest issues were simply known as Indian Dinky toys and later they would be called Nicky toys.
A virtually mint example of the Indian Dinky Mercedes finished in cerulean blue with original bright chrome details, off-white interior, black steering wheel, and intact window glazing. Silver and black plastic one-piece tyres/wheels.
A rare issue.
Shiny black base with all Dinky Toys details obliterated with simply 186 product number.
The colourful correct early Indian Dinky box (S. KUMAR & CO Calcutta) has a little of the usual wear (end crumple).
