What Era is This Cement Mixer?

Ha!  I love the logo on that mixer, John.  I'm not sure whether it's an authentic logo, but it certainly is apropos for a mixer that was built in an era where many little boys dreamt of growing up to be a cowboy.

"B" model Macks are highly desirable trucks for truck collectors (the big kind). They can cost a small (or large) fortune. Some restorers buy up hulks and parts to help in their restoration businesses. Yesterday, I passed a "B" in Lansdale, Pa., that was being used as an advert in the parking lot of a trailer mfg company, it was a twin rear axle (screw) tractor and in very good condition. Have also seen a few "B"'s (mostly dumps) in and around South Jersey, so a few may be appropo for today. Just make them shiny. Joe

The B Mack was one of the cast iron Smith-Miller toy trucks from the 1950s. I have mostly L Macks, as well as a rare GM dump truck with working scoop.
