Might be smaller than what is normally used in civilian construction but should be common enough to find a picture of somewhere.

it's real, you see it moving but had no luck so far


if you noticed rollers are probably the most unknown construction vehicle left

a reason for that it is a very LOW-TECH machine and so there were lots of producers and models many forgotten today

unlike CRANES, dozers or excavators for example which is a more hi-tech machines which means much less producers due to higher expertise required to do them and be successful in the business

It seems in World War 2 the U.S. military used a full-sized Huber roller whenever they could. So, a smaller roller may have been built for the military.

another distinct thing the back turned not sure if it was articulated or not

It looks like Essick was in Los Angeles. But I didn't see any like the war roller.

Suppose we can remove 'Road Roller' from the extra info now, listing these things here is no unusual thing (anymore)

Your blueprints say 1950 on them...but it does resemble the war roller.
