Barrie:

Do you know if this is an early postwar imported ladder, or a prewar Magirus remounted on a newer Leyland chassis?

Either way, it seems a rather unusual combination...

According to another posting on this site, it was new in 1954, so it must have been one of the first Magirus ladders imported after WWII.

Does anyone know of another?
