2008 FARM POWER OF THE PAST

Here are a few tractors that were displayed at this year's
"Farm Power Of The Past Show"
held in Greenville, Ohio July 10-13, 2008.

In the Minneapolis-Moline area was this 1917 Moline Universal

and this 1934 Twin City 21-32.

Huber of Marion, Ohio was a featured manufacturer. Among their displayed models was this 1938 LC

and a 1936 Huber separator.

Here's an old photo taken about the turn of the last century that shows some of my relatives in front of their Huber during threshing time.

Among other old tractors seen at the show was this
1928 McCormick-Deering 10-20.

A 1929 Case 25-45.

One not often seen, a 1950 Love. It was built by Love Industries of Eau Claire, Michigan. J. B. Love sold the rights to manufacture the tractor to David Friday of Hartford, Michigan who continued to build his version under the name
Friday Tractor until 1959.

There were several Wards tractors shown such as this 1950 model. Wards were actually Custom tractors built to be sold by the Montgomery Wards mail order catalog company. Like the Custom they were powered by a 230 cu.in. Chrysler 6 cylinder industrial engine.

This is a Custom Model B.
