From the Floyd County Museum. Today our Oliver 66 tractor is working in the field. The 66 was built from 1949-1954.

That's probably a "staged" photo, never saw a combine in beans that didn't have a trail of bean dust behind it and at the header.

Model 15 had a 20 bushel grain tank, that would be less than 05% of the grain that is in a modern unloading auger.   at least he can see both ends of the seven foot header, can't see the ends of our 40 foot for the bean dust.  There isn't any computer alarm to wake him up at the end of the row!
 
Looks like a extra nice stand and clean for those days before gmo. He should be wearing a big grin. Reminds me again, dad said after WWII it was possible to pay for land with one good crop of soybeans!
 
Dad paid for 3 different 80 acre farms custom combining beans right after ww2. Good looking
picture thank you.
