101 photo in reply to 36 A, 01-01-2006 20:00:19

Here are two photos of what I think is a 101. One picture is captioned as a picker, and the other is called a snapper. Because it sits so far aft, I can't see that it would have room for a husking bed. but I'm sure you old timers will know. I only ever operated a 227, but I have worked in a field with a 226 on a '48 "A", which was our first mounted picker.

F-I-T & others. Just rummaged thru old lit and found the sales brouchure for a 101 picker, dated Aug 50. Says it is" scaled down in weight without sacrificing strength-you'll have a picker that's lighter load on your tractor-apicker that's capible of working in soft fields where heaviier pickers would be idle", on page 3. It shows only manual lift, no mention of using the rock shaft or remote cylinder. It is only shown on a B, except, are you sitting down for this one, at the back pages it is hooked to a M. For the M, it does mention the ball and socket attachment. The studio artwork shows it mounted on what looks like an A, battery under seat but with 3 speeds on main shifter. The husking rolls are crosswise, between the header and elevator. HTH, G.S.

George:

After you said that I remembered an old colorized photo of an "M" prototype with a one-row picker, so a 101 on an "M" should look something like this:

Yep, that's the set up on a M. I guess it beat using nags or hand picking. I'll bet it gave the M a real work out in muddy fields. At least it does have the wagon following directly behind the tractor/picker. G.S.

227/127 photo in reply to 36 A, 01-01-2006 20:00:19

Well, it's raining so hard in Tallahassee, that my flight got delayed, so here's some pictures.

First is a 227 and a 127 picker. Notice how far forward the 127 sits because it has a husking bed behind the snappers. Just a half a 227.

The sept 2005 Green Magazine had a write-in from a guy who just restored a 127. His name was Larry Helwig in Belleview NE. It seems he got most of his parts from 227 pickers. Looks like a pretty nice restoration.

Deere actually made a model 127 picker. It was just one half of a 227. I have never seen one in person but if you do some checking I'm sure you can find a picture. I believe these guys are right that the other deere one row pickers mounted outside the wheel.

Actually Deere built a 1 row semi mounted picker back in the 40s,but it was mounted outside the rear wheel. It was a model 101 ,I think.

Back about 1951. I ran a John Deere picker (must have been a 101) for a neighbor It was mounted on a Ferguson 20 tractor. It had wooden shucking rolls in the back with some kind of attachment to strip the shucks. I remember it did not do a very good job. It needed something replaced. You have brought back an old memory of something I had forgotten. It seems like it mounted on the right side of the Ferguson. I would have been 19 at the time.It sure looked big on that tractor.

I just recently purchased such a picker. It is just a snapper and does not have a husking bed. I have investigated the picker and it seems the snapper was a 101 number. Looking for some parts for it. It is a rather strange hookup as it hooks on a trailer ball on the tractor drawbar.

The 101 one row, and one wheel hooked to the drawbar and ? and ran outside the rear wheel. The 126 (7)? mounted on the tractor with the snapping rolls ahead of the axle.
