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 Mini Bus model in mid-blue, withone-piece wheels and tyres. Original silver details, off-white interior, black steering wheel, and intact glazing.
Occasioanl little marks and a small faint ‘bloomed’ spot low down on one side.
Complete and bright pictorial card box with the correct ‘ATAMCO PRIVATE LTD. CALCUTTA’ print. Light wear includes a scuff or two. Most ‘Nicky’ boxes show more wear.
