Caption: The Ministry of Works yard at Gracefield, Wellington, saw many surplus machinery auctions over the years. Here we see a Euclid SS-12 and its scraper, up for auction in May 1976. Why the MOW chose to sell off the machine as two separate items is a mystery. (Photo: Author)⁣

Caption:  In a slight spot of bother, this Euclid SS-12, with full Ministry of Works signwriting, has got itself well and truly stuck. Judging from the can on the exhaust pipe, it has been there a while! Unknown location, most likely central North Island, late 1960s. (Photo: Don LeComte)⁣
