Hello All,

Woohoo - a possible breakthrough via a lightening fast email response from Mr Mike Saward from Recovery House in Hertford. Thank you so much Mike

Mike identified that the M. E. Breakdown crane is manufactured by Mann Egerton crane in Norwich - Mike provided the link to this site Accessed November 23, 2016 from, http://www.oldclassiccar.co.uk/vinta...ertoncrane.htm. It shows the 10 ton version with two hooks. Maybe the lighter capacity cranes had less hooks?

Thank you again Mike ....

Wow close to midnight here - how did that happen? I had better sign off

More research into cranes tomorrow

The advertisement says "write for a catalogue which gives full details...." Umm I wonder? Teehee!

Kind Regards
Lionel
