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.
This Jaguar model is in very close to mint condition with a vivid red finish, fine silver trim, black gloss base with ‘Dinky Toys’ still visible. Spun wheels and fine tread tyres.Note the stray dabs of factory silver near the door handles.
The correct card box with ATAMCO CALCUTTA print is bright and fresh with very little of the usual wear.
A fascinating piece of Dinky history and well worth incorporating into your collection.
