I would like to find a Rosenthal Cornbine. These were built in the 40's and picked the ear corn and then the stalk was cut off and run through a cutter and either blown or elevated into a wagon.

Howdy,

I wish you luck in finding one of these machines. I seen a sales flyer for them on e-bay a few months back. Looked to be a interesting unit. I wish I would of saved the pictures that were posted with it.

I think you are looking for a Rosenthal Corn Husker or "corn shredder". There are a few of these around, but the Amish types really like them and "cop 'em up", which makes it a little difficult to find one. There's other kinds besides Rosenthal, McCormick-Deering for instance, does it have to be a Rosenthal?
"Cornbine" was a term used to describe the earliest adaptions of a small grain self-propelled combine to the task of shelling corn on the stalk, in the field, using a snapper row crop head to remove the ear from the stalk and then shell it off, storing the kernels in a integral bin and ejecting the cob and husks out the rear like straw in a small grain harvesting operation.
At least that's how I remember it. Hope this helps--

The Rosenthal Co., after the corn shredder era went down the tubes came up with the idea of taking the shredder to the field. They then desiged what looked like a one row pull type picker but it did the same thing as what a shredder would do. In the last issue of Belt Pulley is an article by Brian Wells describing the whole machine. They called it a Cornbine.
