Many of Dad's ribbons & trophies got "lost" along the way, but I saved a few from 1972. He pulled a Two-Twenty in the 12,000 lb. "stock" class.  The trophy is for winning 1st place at the Will county fair in Illinois in late summer 1972.
 We also got 3rd place in Golden, IL that year.
 This is about all I've got left of ribbons, etc. Now, to find some pictures of the tractor!
 The plaque on the bottom of the trophy reads:
1972 Will County Fair
Tractor Pull 90011-12000 lbs.
By - Will County Fair Assn.
(I know you can't hardly read it)
 For some of you, I hope you enjoy the memories!

DeWayne, if you look closely in the fourth picture, you'll see a folded up box in the background that held a few of my "blue & silver friends". The tabs came from there |
