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 original Volkswagen 1500 model finished in light blue-grey with original hand-painted details, off-white interior, black steering wheel, and intact window glazing. Opening bonnet. Shiny wheels (scarce ‘concentric circles’ version) and well-shaped original treaded tyres.
Shiny black base with DINKY TOYS still visible.
Very close to mint condition.
Deeply-coloured Nicky Toys card picture box is complete and brightly-coloured with all end flaps intact.Crisp feel and note the little viewport at a non-picture side is still unpunched.
