I don't really know the history of this picture.It measures 30"x21"inches and is framed.It was at the Allis dealership in early 70's when we took over.I would guess it to be a print that was given out to the dealers in the middle 60's when the tractors were introduced.I could be totally wrong on that,but would welcome any thoughts on it.Are there any others out there?

| I believe those photos were also used in advertizing (magazines, etc.) and all I believe reprints were also made not that long ago, seems like I remember seeing them anyways. Sorry, I don't know more. |

| That was the first advertising of the new model "One-Ninety" tractor....the XT wasn't even heard of when that picture was made.....sometime in Summer of 1964 if memory serves me correctly. |

Dad has the same exact thing. I'm not sure where he got it from but has only had it for a few years-definitely not since 1964. It is a nice print of the early styling like ours is except ours is an XT of course. ------------- "My name is Lionel and I'm an Allisoholic" |

| The picture is from a brochure from September, 1964. The front cover has the two men and their sons on the porch of the farmhouse, looking at the One-Ninety, which is parked under the yardlight. The bottom of the page reads "You bet I'll show you my new One-Ninety". Pages 2 and 3 consist of the picture above. I remember these pictures also being used in magazine ads. The brochure also features the D-21, D-17IV, D-15II, D-12III, and D-10III. dave |

When visiting on a Sunday afternoon, I remember my dad and his brother-in-law looking over the AC ad featuring this illustration. It caused the rest of us boys to gather around to see what all the excitement was about. The 190 design was so different that it caused us all to be wowed by it's form. I believe Syd Meade was the artist who was originally from Minnesota. Curious to know if you plan to sell it. |
