Help Identifying Some Models Please

[Idris]

Thank you for having a look. I've taken a some better pictures for anybody who is curious.

Two things strike me:
- The model is LHD, which means that it must have been made primarily for export since Japan drives on the left.
- It looks like there is a company logo featuring a diamond shape on the right-hand side of the ladder (at the widest point).

I also saw this Diamond logo on the side of the ladder frame and what appear to be the letters..JC. I do not know of a Japanese toy company or distributor with a matching set of initials or name, so for now this model remains anonymous.

Pushing the limits of my photography skills here... I'm using a mobile phone camera and an effect from Photobucket!

Letters are JD

2 is Barclay, 3, I believe are plastic, is that correct? I think they may be Processed Plastic Co.

No3 are all metal, not seen any markings on them at all.

No, 5 is a Charbens "Old Crocks" series no. 26.

I agree, and these are extremely rare but sadly there are not very many charben collectors about.

'JD', An immediate thought is for 'JADALI', but I am not aware of a Fire Escape vehicle in their range, but it makes sense to have one to go with the other Lesney inspired vehicles in the range.

If No. 6 has JAPAN on the side, it could be a late issue of a model marketed by 'AHI' (Azrak Hamway International), a large American toy distributor and marketing company who struck deals with many toy companies to supply toys for their product line and the small Ahi models were very popular in many countries, being sold as single models or in gift sets.

I does not look like the 'AHI' model I know of, so may be a copy of it...!

I also think it is a copy of the AHI - I have a similar one in my collection - comes from a set similar to the AHI sets
