Hi Here’s a couple of shots from this BC Electric collection that came in at the booth.
Caption:
Ted Trump, Oliver inventor, demonstrates his latest truck-mounted giraffe for BC Electric in * 1958. Using the bridge over Okanagan River, he shows the versatility of the reach of his machine. Ted went on to develop this device as fire equipment, de-icer for airports and many other uses.
Thanks to the Lennon Family for the donation of this album that was found in a dumpster. Please don’t throw away our history, let us see it first. Courtesy of the Okanagan Archive Trust Society www.oldphotos.ca
