Dear W. T. Allison:

I was a big time collector of Trophy sets in mid to late 1990's, but I did not recall that trophy had any circus sets. Looks like splendid set!

Al: I have never seen TC1 and TC2 I knew someone had TC5 "The Clowns and the Bearded Lady" There were only 5 different sets. When I asked Len for sets he said the molds were too old and had been destroyed.

Thanks Scott. This is TC3 and the spectators are by Marlborough.

I enclosed TC5 picture "Circus Clowns"...I have an extra set for trade.
In regards to TC1 & TC2, I have never seen them but a friend of mine might have them in his collection. I will check with him next time we meet.
Your sets based on the horses "shape" were made in early 1980s, I guess.

Thanks Al. I expect you are correct about the age of my sets. Please send me a PM about your second set.

I thought this series would be a best seller,but I am afraid it was'nt.The development cost's on the two carts were horrendous,there was a heck of a lot of detail work in the carving.As I recall we added two sets of clowns to the series ,and that was the last,
One set contained a bearded lady that was something to behold,I pulled it out of production in the Eighties.Regards LEN

Bearded ladies have always frightened me, but the clown set is great! They really are something to behold!:wink2: Those circus carts are spectacular.

This is one series I am sorry I don't have, I really like it and will continue the search!

I think it would be cool to have the complete set and maybe mix it in with the Britains circus.

The huge cost would be a factor though :rolleyes2:

At Valley Forge yesterday, Al showed me his circus clowns. Really neat and lovely stuff.
