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 very close to mint example finished in aa attractive sky blue, with original silver details, original driver, and black steering wheel. One-piece tyres/wheels. Light blue plastic driver.
Complete racing numbers which are most-eye-catching in a shiny ‘chrome’ (foil) colour finish with bold ‘35’ numbering in black. Minor wear.
Very near mint condition. Please note that the racing numbers are truly reflective, although the images may not quite show this.
Shiny black base has the lettering ‘JAGUAR TYPE D’ visible, as well as the product number.
The colourful correct box (ATAMCO P LTD. Calcutta) is complete and bright. Largely free of the usual ‘white edges’ or heavy tears that plague these comparatively flimsy boxes. Minor wear and a couple of part-punctures.
