Greetings! Adam and I like to welcome you to our site regarding the ever so versatile Colortran Mini-Crab Dolly. The Mini-Crab Dolly was ingeniously designed by veteran film and TV actor, William Sargent. There's more on both William Sargent and the Mini-Crab Dolly within this site. Please be sure to hit the 'Older Posts' tab near the bottom of each page to see more posts. If you're an owner of a Mini-Crab, we'd like to invite you to register your dolly with us, as we will be soon be posting the member page. You can email Adam and I directly at gregoryz@centurylink.net
Here's an original sales brochure that was sent to me from Berkey-Colortran in the early 70's about the sleek and nearly portable Mini-Crab Dolly. This brochure was my first introduction to the Mini-Crab. It was told to me by the inventor of the Mini-Crab, William Sargent, that the gentleman peering from behind the above Arriflex is filmmaker, Chris Roberts. Chris was the son of actor Pernell Roberts of Bonanza fame. Click on either image to enlarge. We hope to become a resource to you and welcome your experience using the Mini-Crab. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions or are currently selling a Mini-Crab.
We look forward to talking with you and we again welcome you to the world of the Mini-Crab Dolly and the Sarkell Society - Sincerely, Adam and Greg Zaryk
