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 (by Nicky Toys’ standards) finished in a vivid metallic red with white roof and doors, red roof light, original silver details, off-white interior, steering wheel, and intact window glazing. Very nearly intact ’POLICE ’ lettering on both sides. One-piece tyres and wheels.
Shiny black base with Dinky information obliterated (feature of later issues).
The colourful correct box (ATAMCO P LTD. Calcutta) is complete and bright. Note the puncture which has pressed back into place. Small seam tear and wear.
