Is this a tractor that A-C supplied to Emerson-Brantingham?
A lot of the features look like an A-C 20-35. Merry Christmas to all of you on the forum. Thanks |

According to Wendal's Encyclopedia of American Farm Tractors, Emerson-Brantingham came out with the 20-35 tractor in 1919. It says it was an improved version of the Big 4 "20" that came out in 1913 and used an L-head four cylinder, 5 x 7 inch engine. It weighted 10,000 lbs and was 16 feet long, 7 feet wide and 8 feet tall. Had a Pickering governor, K-W mag and a Bennet carb. It must have not been very popular as the book says it disappeared after 1920. Wil |

I don't think A-C ever supplied E-B with a tractor. They did, however, supply Nichols & Shepard and Banting (Greyhound) with a 20-35. Perhaps that's what you were thinking.

The only similarities which I can see is that both are tractors and both have 4 steel wheels! That is NOT an AC, believe me!! The AC 20-35 was a wonderful and much under-rated tractor - FAR and away ahead of the EB models.

Do you mean Edward P. Allis who purchased the Reliance Works in Milwaukee in 1857 for about $22.00? Merged with Frazier and Chalmers in 1901.
