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 metallic blue with original silver details, off-white interior, steering wheel, and intact window glazing. Late issue one-piece wheel and tyre construction. Runs well.
Shiny black base.
Chip on the bonnet (probably factory assembly) and a couple of very minor marks besides. End flap tear and another tear at a non-picture side. Little crumple.
