JCB First Bamford Trailer

Universal Hobbies exact scale model replica of a vintage farm trailer.

In 1945, Joseph Cyril Bamford created the first JCB product - a screw tipping farm trailer. This trailer was made mainly from war surplus materials and was the only one ever made with wooden rather than steel side boards. Today, JCB is one of the world's largest manufacturers of earthmoving, agricultural and materials handling equipment.

The restored trailer sits proudly in the reception area of JCB's World Headquarters in Staffordshire, England: a reminder of humble beginnings
