Any YT guys or gals going to the Albert City show this weekend. If so I'd like to meet you so I could put a face to a name. I'm going to drive up tomorrow & get a camping spot. I'll volunteer where ever I can Thursday to help get ready & then will be at the show all day Friday. Should we meet at the feature building lets say at 11:00 Just a thought Gerald

I'll be there, probably wearing blue bibs, and a John Deere hat of some sort. See you there.

Hope you guys take some photos to post. Would love to see the world record breaking plowing with horses and mules.

Also pics of Thieman tractors if any are there.

Sweetfeet, I saw this Thieman last Sat at our club show in Spencer Ia. It will be at Albert City also. This particular tractor has a Chevrolet six cylinder engine, where almost all the others I have seen had four cylinder Model A Ford engines.

Albert City puts on a fantastic show. I've been there several times. I'd love to go again but it is just too much walking and standing. My knees and hips just don't like it.

I love those Aultman-Taylors.

Bob, would this be the Carroll Co Historical Society Heider? If it isn't, could I trouble you for the tag numbers and maybe some pictures? I am trying to assemble a list of surviving Heiders and don't have many pre 1916's on the list so any information is useful.

Paul, yes it is the Heider that's now owned by the Carroll Co. Historical Museum,and was restored by Dr. Richard Collison and Omer Langenfeld.
It will be in the parade on Saturday. Bob

We have not been out to Albert City yet, but if Case is the feature next year and they would like Heider/Rock Island to be included I might be able to talk dad into us bringing one or two. we have don't have a Carroll built Heider, but we do have a running motor cultivator and a couple of the very last tractors Rock Island built before selling out to Case including the only currently known 1936 serial number.
