The Dinky Mystery Boxes

A question from Hugh Stiles: “In a toy car Forum, we're trying to work out why some Dinky Toys appear to have been sold in The Netherlands in non-standard boxes. The trail leads back to 1933 and a company called G. S. Miller Co's Automotief Producten NV, Nieuwe Zijds Voorburgwal 120 in Amsterdam. Being Dutch and involved with pre-war cars, have you ever heard of this firm? Have you any idea what they sold? Do you know what became of them? I know it's a bit of a long shot but we're running out of options, but any help will be most gratefully received.”
The picture of the Mobilgas truck immediately got editor RB to dig up his own well played with example. We don’t know about the boxes though. Can you help? Add your comment!
