In Memory Of Scott Satterlund
In late June 2003, tractor
collectors around the country lost a very special friend. Scott C.
Satterlund, Co-Owner of Binder Books, Tigard Oregon lost his quick but
futile battle with brain cancer. Scott's roots in the very large
International Harvester Family started early when his Grandfather opened
one of the very first "Base of Operations" IH dealerships in
Cumberland, Wisconsin. He grew up around and on IH tractors, trucks,
and assorted equipment of the IH line.
Scott's love of old iron became a passion when he started selling
manuals from the trunk of his vehicle at tractor shows or wherever there
was a gathering of collectors. This passion grew to the point of
establishing and opening Binder Books in Tigard. Their mission was and
remains to provide the very best reprints of manuals for tractors,
implements, equipment and trucks of the IH line to fill the needs of
Collectors Nationwide. You would be hard pressed to look at any
collector's library and not see a manual purchased at Binder Books which
is almost a household word with the many collectors out there today.
He was a gentleman, a husband, a father, a collector, and a friend
to anyone who ever needed help. When the Northwest Chapter of IH
Collectors Chapter 30 was established in June 2001, he readily accepted
the nomination and was quickly voted in as one of the Chapters Directors
at the Chapters first Annual meeting. He served that assignment well and
was a huge asset that will be most difficult to replace.
Collectors can rest assured that Binder Books will continue to
serve their needs with Scott's wife Cyndi keeping his passion alive.
Scott will be missed but it helps to know he is now serving the Supreme
Collector.

A NOTE FROM CYNDI SATTERLUND
I would like to thank everyone for the cards and their kindness in
regards to the recent illness and loss of my husband, Scott Satterlund.
I know he would have appreciated how many people cared and been
overwhelmed (as he often times was, form the "Get Well" cards he
received). I am certain if prayers and good wishes could have made him
well he would have had a swift recovery. It seems God had other plans
for him.
I know how much he enjoyed meeting and visiting with all of you
other "IH" collectors out there. He loved attending shows and buying,
selling and swapping IH equipment, collectibles and stories.
We have asked anyone wishing to make a contribution in Scott's
memory, can make one to the Scott Satterlund Memorial Fund at:
American Brain Tumor Association
2270 River Rd.
Des Plains, IL. 60018
They have a web site:
www.abta.com where you can make a donation "online" or call them at
1-800-866-2282
Thanks again and God Bless,
Cyndi Satterlund

An Old-Time Tractor Demonstration - by Kim Pratt. Sam was born in rural Kansas in 1926. His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer. It was an Allis-Chalmers tractor dealership,
