Vintage Chessington World of Adventures promotional brochure from the iconic Great Escape era, featuring early park attractions, original ride imagery, classic mascots and period advertising from one of Britain’s most beloved theme parks.
A fantastic piece of UK theme park history and an increasingly desirable collectible for enthusiasts of Chessington World of Adventures, vintage amusement parks, leisure history and nostalgic British memorabilia. Early Chessington material is becoming progressively harder to find as relatively few brochures survived decades of handling and disposal, making original park literature particularly appealing to collectors.
This brochure captures Chessington during a fascinating period of development, including references to attractions and additions that were new for 1990. It offers a unique snapshot of how the park was marketed during one of its most memorable eras and provides an insight into the evolution of British theme parks before the modern Merlin Entertainments period.

• Original Chessington World of Adventures brochure
• Features The Great Escape era attractions
• References new-for-1990 additions

Historical Significance:
Vintage theme park brochures offer a fascinating record of attractions that have since changed, been re-themed or disappeared entirely.
