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 close to mint example finished in white with RED CROSS emblems on both sides, and a particularly difficult to find early issue with roof label. Original silver details, off-white interior, steering wheel, and intact glazing, cab glazing is clear, the rest is opaque blue. Silver and black plastic one-piece tyres/wheels.
A few little marks.
Harder to find early issue plain white card box – this plain, end flap box has the correct ‘ATAMCO PRIVATE LTD. CALCUTTA’ and hand-written ‘Ambulance’ and product details. Period price penned. Light grubbiness/wear.
