Wondering how rare this is and what sort of value it has (Ser#324571248 Is 1947 the correct year?). Was the 76 the first auto-tie baler with a pickup (so the hay didn't have to be brought to the baler-the baler picked up the hay)? It has a Leroi 4 cyl. motor w/hand crank start (said to be original to the baler-most had a Wisconsin engine). Pickup on left side with canvasses to bring the hay up to an auger and then into the chamber. It is in nice original condition and everything works & always shedded (all decals are clear).

just bought a Super 77 yesterday, [9-8-02] $350 for a very clean excellent machine. I would like to fine a 76 also. I have many used parts for a 77 and all the belts new for a 76.

There are alot in Pa but I would imagine the farther west the more rare. In Pa they bring between $100.00 and $2400.00. Yours is one of the last model 76 balers serial# 32457 made in Dec. 1948 (the last#'s of the serial# is the date made). From 1938 to 1940 Ed Nolt the inventor sold balers under the name Arthur Young, in Dec. 1940 New Holland bought the baler rights and made the model 73 until 1943, the model 75 was made from 1944 to 1945 then the 76 from 1946 to 1948. at the end you could get a Leroi engine instaed of the Wisconsin.

We had one on the farm when I was a boy- we used it up till 1970- and still have it but it needs to be restored.
I would be interested in finding out where I could find some parts-

Scott,
Thanks for the information. I appreciate it. One more thing, You wouldn't happen to know where they were manufactured and how many of each (73, 75, & 76) were produced. I'm sure a lot of them ended up rusting away in the woods since they were so large & hard to transport (and may not have been seen as collectable).
Thanks again
Kevin from MN

They were made in New Holland, Lancaster co, Pa. There were 1424 model 73's made, 5903 model 75's and about 25,000 model 76's. Arthur Young made about 125 balers before New Holland bought them.
