Notes
Sought after models that are so difficult to find in good condition! This is an early Indian Dinky model – later these models would be marketed as Nicky Toys. Often known as Indian-Dinky toys, the finish was poor in comparison.
A close to mint Triumph Vitesse model finished in emerald green with off-white interior, black steering wheel, and intact window glazing. Early version, so separate wheels and tyres.
Shiny black base with ‘DINKY TOYS’ lettering, Dinky product number 134 and details clearly visible. Indian Licensee details visible.
Barely a mark to the paint finish (stray flick of factory silver low down on one side).
The rare early box with DINKY TOYS print is bright and complete. An early picture box (with cream background) and correct with S.KUMAR & CO Calcutta on the underside.
A carefully re-attached end flap and light wear.
