1930 Era Advertising

Tom in Iowa City · Feb 26, 2010

There are some really cool ads that International Harvester made for their 15-30/22-36 tractors. I have seen them on the Wisconsin Historical Society website. You can buy a 5 by 7 for $15.00 plus.
I'm wondering where I would find the original ads. What publications, what magazines would ads have appeared in in around 1930 aimed at the farmer?

"American Thresherman" was a really good one for full sized ads. Have a number of those issues and IH advertised in every one of them

Tom, your only about an hour and half from me, and id let you look at all my literature if you felt like doing a road trip.

I collect ONLY pre39 IHC so my stuff would probably be right up your alley 8)
