Tom, Several years ago I watched an RFD-TV show featuring Mr. Mehmke as he gave a tour of his collection (that was way before the 99.8% air time about horses they have now). I remember him as a very polite and intelligent man. In the fall of 2010 my wife and I followed the Lewis & Clark trail from Sioux City to Ft. Clatsop. I drove out to the Mehmke farm, but found he was no longer living. A young man said I could look at the tractors.

This last spring (1999) I hauled the tractor to our 2 acre lot in St. Libory Nebraska where it joined my antique machinery collection, at that time a 1929 Caterpillar T
