The world's first steam roller had been demonstrated in 1860 in France, built by Monsieur Louis Lemoine. Thereafter, Aveling & Porter Ltd. of Rochester, Kent became the most successful manufacturer of road rollers in Britain, eventually producing a total output of about 20,000 rollers of both steam and internal propulsion engines. Our steam roller model is handcrafted out of iron. It features many intricate details such as front and rear rollers, engine, seat, steering wheel, front roller guard, frame, and a unique OK-FOL 20 decal on each side. It's a great model for any home or office decoration or passionate collectors.
