Notes
An eye-catching Chipperfields item first issued in 1968.
It contains a Scammell truck with three plastic cages containing two lions, two tigers and two bears. This example has a bright red and blue paint finish, jewelled headlights and Chipperfields label at cab front. Highly detailed decorative labels on both sides have are very near mint-mint.
The plastic cages are complete and intact with all animals still in their plastic ‘bubbles’. Nice to see this example still has the black elastic bands which fasten the cages to the trailer (often missing!) and the strip of unused little sticky pads for the animal figures.
Complete and clean* polystyrene inner*.
The large window boxis clean and bright.
Note that the original cellophane has a few little punctures (common fault). Clean, fresh-looking card is colourful – just a little minor wear. Shop label.
