1926...you don't see many tank trailers that old!! In fact, not many of any kind of trailer.

That is awesome.  Not cheap.  Glad I don’t have a 1926 tractor to pull It with or I would really want it.

The more I look at it the more I think it was something cobbled together at a later date. The tank looks like it would be from that era but the wheels look like they were put on later. Still would be cool to have it paired up with a 20s or 30s Mack.

I think your right

It has landing legs, I don't think quick release turn tables were very common then, I don't know if the even existed

Pneumatic tyres would of been pretty none existent on big trucks at that time 

All photos of tanker trailers of that era are rivited together 

 

None the less, this is a very cool little trailer and would look right at home hitched to something from the late 30s onwards
