Bill, Does being a collector count or does it have to be on a working farm? If I remember right I have a John Deere left hand walking plow, Chattanooga right hand slate plow, unknown gee-wizz cultivator, wheelborror type seeder, Gale hand operated ensilage cutter, potato culti-packer, walk behind potato digger, what I think is a Avery cultivator, Milwaukee #2 single horse chain drive mower, Milwaukee #5 chain drive mower, McCormick-Deering #6 mower with a 5' bar, 3 McCormick-Deering #7 mowers with 4', 5', and 6' bars, 4 McCormick-Deering #9 mowers. One with a 4' bar, 2 with 5' bars with one with rubber tires, and one with a 6' bar. I also have one John Deere #1 mower, 2 John Deere #4 mowers. One of the #4's has a 5' bar and the other one has a 7' bar with tractor gearing. I also have a 6' Deering-New Ideal grain binder, New Idea #10 mower, International #200 manure spreader, Gale corn planter, (they went out of the farm machinery business around 1919) 3 John Deere-Van Brundt grain drills; one is a single horse that was used between corn rows, 1 with a 4 foot box on wooden wheels and one with a 8' box on wooden wheels; and to round out my collection and the only thing I have that is not horse drawn is a Massy-Harris #55 Clipper combine. The only reason I have that is because I was at a auction and it was in too good of shape for the scrap man to get. Some of the above things are restored but most are not but they are all in working condition. I won't even go into what I have for parts machines or original manuals. :-)
