I have said many times it would be very helpful to the tractor restorer if there was some kind of online library to draw information from. There is a lot of data contained in private collections that few get a chance to see.

I will gladly scan anything I have and mail it to you if you want to post it on your site.

Thanks for Again!

I completely agree about how helpful those old brochures are and the way the prices keep going it's a shame someone who spends so much time restoring a tractor may never see the inside of the sales brochure for it.
I have actually bought complete non running tractors for less money then I have paid or bid and NOT won on a brochure.

Last week at a tractor show, I commented to a Massey Harris Pacer owner that his tractor looked outstanding, we chatted for a while and I ask him if he saw a certain brochure for his tractor. This certain brochure is a real work of art and is simple the best lighograph I have ever seen for a tractor, as good as any car brochure of the same era. Well, the pacer own answered, “oh I saw that brochure….But only the cover it was was under glass at a Massey show”. I was happy to inform him , he’s going to see the inside . because I’ll be posting it.

Anyway THANK YOU, I will send you an email

I don’t know how old you are, but, it sounds like you lived to see some of the technology super growth, I’m 45 and I was born in the middle of the technology explosion All Iv ever known is better, bigger ,faster.

Listen to this quote I found from 1918 by Editor of “Farm Power” Raymond Olney. Raymond Olney was born and raised on a farm and graduated from Cornell University as a mechanical engineer….So the guys NOT a hic
He wrote, “Much as the tractor is needed on a very large percentage of farms, the time will probably never come when horses will cease to be needed to do farm work. In other words, the tractor has come to supplement animal power, not to displace it. There will no doubt be farms where horses can be dispensed with practically entirely; but these will be very few, and they will not be farms where a diversity of crops is grown...

Isnt that great history ?…..that needs to be preserved

Thanks again
