Got a 1 row IHC picker not a snapper. Like it real well, other than for the number of grease zerks and the on off control system for the elevator, which wasnt there when I got it. Its in the 50s 60s as it has some white on it. Dad had a #24, and he has cussed all his life. Not that he didnt start way before that, but as we was to little to help him, and by the time we was in our teens he was the kind of guy who wanted to do it all himsaelf to make sure it was done right, I never got in on putting it on the H. Hew stored it inside, would drive it into the barn up to the elevator, take it down and lay it on a barrel. and then drive on inside for say 5 ft. Then hed take off the elevator and lay it aside. Then hed take off the picker. Dont remember if the center snout stayed on or not. Then hed take the elevater and back the top end inside where the tractor had been still above the barrell. and that was that till next year. Dont remember him ever having any real trouble out of it He didnt want ANY shucks to go into the wagon, so we had to ride the wagon and get shucks and throw them out. On an steel wheeled wagon box there aint mant ways to avoid getting hit by the corn as we would dive up to get a stalk. Dad had a hard hat like a WW 1 helmet. We would take turns wearing it, and all the coats we could put on and go for it.

Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
