Unknown items (help for identification appreciated)

Unknown German steamroller.

When the German occupational forces were thrown out of the small Danish island Bornholm, they left some equipment behind. One of these items was a damaged steamroller, photographed below, that was left at the local airport outside the main town Rønne.

It was given the nickname “Eva Braun”, and after getting a radiator from Guy Motors lorry, it was used at the airport for several years after the end of the war.

Today it is preserved at the local technical museum “Bornholms Tekniske Samling”.

Please leave a comment below, if you can identify the make and model.
