I mostly look at that stuff for stress relief from the simpler times when I was a kid. Many of them fall into a couple if groups, some are close to what we had in the family, some were what friends and neighbors had, and some, the 1206 in particular, I just drooled over in Farm Journal and Successful Farming. Remember Prairie Farmer magazine?All great pics. A few look like field days photos our local collectors club puts on each year. We plant n harvest a 40 acre plot near the fair grounds. But others look like real farmers busting there butts doing the things that made us who we are.
Thanks.
That’s a thankless job. Imagine how long that took. Looks like they got the right man for the job.
I ran a rig just like that. Then next step was 560 four bottom, then 806 five bottom, 1066/1466/1086 six bottom was the biggest I ran.That’s a thankless job. Imagine how long that took. Looks like they got the right man for the job.
And when he was done bet he got told the rows were crooked.
Second thought, that looks like a modern photo, the quality and angle.
Yep.

@Ingomike , I was talking with my Dad recently and I brought up rollover plows. I have seen them used quite a bit in Europe, and I thought it was because you could turn around and go over right next to where you've been. My Dad said they were for throwing the soil up the hill. So on hilly ground, they might be beneficial.
That has to be the coolest tractor... It just looks right. Everything about it looks powerful.
