I took 4 of my tractors to Penfield for the Historic Farm Days hosted by the I & I Antique Tractor Club. The feature tractor was Oliver this year but all colors were invited to attend. Here is a picture of the 4 tractors that I brought to Penfield. They are a '45 Farmall H, a '30 Case Model C, and 2-'37 F-20's. I expect that the show had over 800 tractors of various colors on the ground. Great Show!! This is the first show of this type that I have had the pleasure to be involved with. These folks really have their act together. By the way they (I & I) are looking for 2 of each year tractor (since 1953) for a static display at the upcoming Illinois Farm Progress Show in September. The Illinois Farm Progress Show started here in Vermilion County in 1953. Our area is gearing up and expecting as many as 300,000 people to attend! WOW! Dave Olson - East-Central Illinois
