According to the book, "Elevating Platforms" by Paul Barrett, the booms were built by the Daybrook Div. of the Young Spring and Wire Co. of Bowling Green,OH. Kentland is credited with the 1st delivery in 1963, with other 63 models going to San Bernadino, Cal., and Hampton,VA. Melrose Park,ILL. got 1 in 1966, and Green Bay Wis. got an open cab on theirs in 1968.
Hauppauge, NY's is a 1971 Seagrave with a 1 of a kind boom built by a Canadian firm called Highway Trailer Ind.
Kentland's platform later served in Bath NY.
BTW, those are some nifty old photos, Mr. Bernadito![/quote]
Paul's book, I believe, has photos of 7 Seagrave/Daybrook-Youngs and the one-off for Hauppague, NY. The Green Bay rig has always been a mystery to me because I don't show it in my Seagrave database. The San Bernardino rig was actually ordered by LA City. Upon delivery, it was rejected and never placed in service, then purchased by SB.
