Ever since I saw the link I have pasted below, I have been looking for the Allis brochure "A New Adventure in Farming". It is a 40 page booklet published in 1940-41 to convince farmers to give up their horses for an Allis B or C. Well one popped up on ebay the other night for about 10 minutes! LOL. I was the first person to trip the counter, and I was glad to see a "buy it now" button. This thing is in mint condition, the pages haven't even been creased! Funny thing is, it was only 45 miles away from me. There is so much fun info in here. Eventually, I will get a color, laminated copy made to display at shows with my 40 B. I thought I would share the story with others who actually may be interested! My wife acted like she was interested and happy for me, but in reality I am sure she could care less. LOL Here is a pic of the cover, it is not washed out-that is the flash. Here is one from the inside that I really like:
 Finally here is a link where you can download most of it (this one is exactly the same):

Sorry, I'm not ready to do copies or scans right now, so please don't ask.

Neat, I never seen that one, I will have to watch for it... Every time I see 'Farming Practices' it brings good money I have not worked up to that one yet. Thanks for posting a pic ------------- 1951 B, 1937 WC, 1957 D14, -- Thanks and God Bless |

| Now you need "Daylight Farming", "Thrifty Farm Power" and the other sales literature for the B!!!! |

I have "Daylight Farming" too although the condition could be a little better. I am still keeping an eye open for the other two!

I have several pieces I would like to setup as a display with the B. Like the foldout you show. I think I want to get some copies made for that and keep the originals from getting any worse. ------------- 1951 B, 1937 WC, 1957 D14, -- Thanks and God Bless |
