    Posted: 14 hours 30 minutes ago at 12:00pm
Found this brochure in old desk in old farm house. Iv seen those brochures before so that’s not what I’m talking about. It had my great uncles name address on it which is where it is. And my grandfather’s dealership address on it. But gramp would not have sent it. You can see the dealership from the house. Pretty much same property. 
My uncle bought new tractor and equipment from gramp.
Did Allis Chalmers send these out to people who bought equipment. like agco used to send out Farm Life magazine. And if so how many other brochures would have been sent.



Like I said Iv see these brochures before but thought the addresses were interesting.
Thanks

That D19 with the 5-furrow plow sure looks good even today. Must have been impressive in those days. Smile

Mikez, that is a great AC “color photo” brochure. Thanks for sharing photos of it. Per my collection of AC brochures, those that include their original AC dealership’s business info (family name & address), it is usually “ink stamped” on front or back page.
As a kid, I’d try to catch a peek into dealerships’s shop when a mechanic opened door to parts counter. Then I might get a quick glimpse of which models were being repaired/serviced. Otherwise, I’d be checking out the dealership latest brochures in their display racks. All the while, Dad was getting parts at parts counter.
I don’t ever remember Dad receiving brochures in the mail. The AC Landhandler magazine was always in our mail though. Per the mail, most if not all farm publications(Prairie Farmer, Farm Journal, Successful Farming, etc,,,) had loads of AC “artwork ads” or “color photo inserts stapled into publications. Yes, I had to ask Dad if he was done reading that issue before he’d allow me to unstable those beautiful color photo inserts from publication, rendering the rest loose.
DrAllis your AC brochure dating is spot-on.
