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 example finished in a rich reddish-brown shade with original silver details, light fawn interior, driver, steering wheel, and intact screen. Silver and black plastic one-piece tyres/wheels.
Tiny mark or two away from mint.
The colourful correct box (ATAMCO P LTD. Calcutta) is complete and clean. Tiny tear or two and the usual rubbing at some edges. Period penned price and numbering written on a non-picture side.
Original card packing ring is included.
