We bought a 6' wooden wheeled grain drill at an auction for $5.00 in the early 80's.

It had the dates and amounts planted penciled in the inside of the hopper lid. Even notes such as "War is over" in 1945.

I actually planted about 3 acres of oats/alfalfa with it in '83 or so.

My parents saved the lids, my mom writes a weekly coulmn for a rural paper and did an article entitled "Farm's history on lid of planter"

If I can get her permission I'd like to add the article to this site one day.
