Chipperfield’s Circus Crane Truck - 1121

page last updated: 03 November 2011

The second trip out for the International 6x6 was as the first of the Chipperfields Circus range. This one was to stay in the range until 1969.  Suspension has been added since the previous year's military version and a crane jib. There are a very few listed variations none of which seem to affect value. The jib is pressed tinplate and can be chromed or painted, the box can be a lift-lid box or and end-flap box, and that is it really. Other than that it is one of the defining Corgi models, as popular now as ever so will always get a premium on price. However there are masses of playworn examples around so you can get a bargain if you take your time.
