Old Potato Digger

I found a photo of an old potato digger on the Implement Alley forum. It was posted by Fullers Farmall on the 17th of last month.
I just re-posted it to the Implement Photos section. (wish I new how to attach it to this message)
Since I have the same digger, I wondered if anyone can identify the maker. I've had my digger for years and have never been able to learn who made it. The only casting numbers on mine are F&H on the wheels. (and I'm pretty sure that just tells me that F&H made the wheels for the digger)

Hi Pete, I have been looking for a make on that digger and couldn't find one. I did however have some of it apart and there was some green paint under some of the metal that had never been exposed. I don't know what brand that would be but i think if it had been Deere they would have stamped all of their parts. When I go home next I'll pull it out and look for some more markings.
 
Here's a potato digger made by Hoover. I should've had one of these when I grew a lot of potatoes. Hal

Thanks Bob, I appreciate that. (I use to know how to post the photos but then I changed PC's and browers and have not yet relearned how to do it!)
 
Thanks for the photo! Mine looks similiar to that but, some differences on the drive wheel and front beams make me think its made by a different company. On mine, the centers of the drive wheels are not round shaped and the front beams are just plain steel bar stock rather than cast beams. The F&H wheels in Fullers Farmall's photo are a pretty unique and distinctive shape.
