Can you identify this crane?

WRITTEN BY

Following the successful identification of an old Bay City crane last week, another reader has asked if any of our readers know who made what was a famous crane/come wrecker mounted on a Magirus chassis.

He has sent two photos one form Finland where a unit owned by rental company Toman is working in conjunction with what looks like an early Demag. The other photo shows a restored or new crane owned by the US army.

The crane was also made into a model by Matchbox in the early 1960’s but it was labelled as a Magirus crane. Matchbox model number 30.
