Nicky 186
Nicky/Dinky Toys 186 Mercedes-Benz 220 SE. Scarce SAFFRON YELLOW version. Very near mint/boxed. From The Cumbrian Collection.
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 saffron yellow with original silver details, off-white interior, black steering wheel, and intact window glazing. Silver and black plastic one-piece tyres/wheels.
The first we have ever offered for sale in this colour finish.
Shiny black base.
A little wear to the plating on one small area of the rear bumper.
The colourful correct box (ATAMCO P LTD. Calcutta) has very little of the usual wear (for this range). Hard to find so good!
