Notes
A colourful 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!).
Barely a mark.
Complete and clean polystyrene inner.
The large window box is bright and complete with intact original cellophane. Card is clean with quite a crisp feel.
Minor age/handling wear and a tear at one end flap seam. Original sticky pads on backing paper are still present.
