Default Thanks! Also possible answers

Thank you Hanno.

That mystery 3-ton Compressor Truck could be:
L 5541198 to L 5541272 Contract SM 6052 LORRY 3 TON 4 X 4 COMPRESSOR which would have had a Generator and Compressed Air Tank Body.

On another note it seems Lars that I have some photos from Keith that are duplicates of some of the ones you sent, though there are some that Keith sent that are not in the two piles. Also I have scanned several shots of a C15A chassis/cab with GMEXC prefixes, so that means we can associate that series with the numbered shots.

I am certian that official photos that I scanned in from GM of Canada's war album contain photos from the official listing so they can be added to the ones I now have to scan. Further, some of them were published from around 1942-45 in CANADIAN WAR WORKER magazine which was GM of Canada's wartime propaganda staff mag. Only a few copies are known to survive in the GM of C Plant in Windsor, Ontario. I guess that they used the official photos for all sorts of purposes year on year.

May we appeal please to anyone who has official GM of Canada photos, or knows any museums and suchlike who might have copies to contact as we might be able to eventually reconstruct a good percentage of the totoal listing of over 1100 photos.
