    That pic has to be from the mid 70s when Premay was all out of the Edmonton office and the shop foreman was the head trailer designer.
    The salesmen would ask him if something could be moved over the road and 1 or 2 days later a trailer setup was drawn out with a cost estimate and that salesman could add the costs and quote the job.
    In the late 70s they opened a small office in Regina SK about 3 blocks from the yard I was heavy hauling out of. That office was mostly for 60'+ pipe loads out of IPSCO to oilfields in AB and BC. It was mostly to compete with us as we had 4 cable-steered pole trailers and 3 trombones as well as 3 jeeps that could be "bunked up" to extend a flatbed.

    Told my customer I was going to charge more since the original measurements I was given should have filled the bottom deck...not the whole trailer. 20221130_084422.jpg 20221130_084228.jpg 20221130_084215.jpg 20221130_083259.jpg IMG_20221129_163111_325.jpg

    When I was growing up I lived about 10 miles from there. I used to play hockey in the winterburn arena down the road. Mid 70s till the 90s. My eyes were always glued when we drove by.
