Balanced-Head mowers & Dave H (MI)

Dave H (MI); in another post ref: sickle mowers, you mentioned a brochure and it got me to thinking I maybe had it also; is WRIST-ACTION DRIVE on the front lower left? If so, it appears to me to be a single front wheeled Farmall 340 in the photos on the back. I would also like to find a large point balanced head mower to attach to either my Farmall 340 or 460. When the weather changes here in SW Wisc. a friend of mine is going to have corn and soybeans to plant and the hay will be past ready to cut and me's a tinkin' some tractor seat time!!

The brochure states "New, exclusive WRIST-ACTION drive helps you mow up to 10 extra acres each day!"
 
I have either that brochure or a similar one. Can't find the reference to 10 acres but it does say "exclusive wrist action drive...in trailing or fast hitch mowers" on the lower left front cover and has the tractor on the back. I have the three IH mowers mentioned earlier. Don't have the 3 or 2 pt mowers. Not looking for the 3 but I would also really like to find a fast hitch balanced head for my 300. My 120 is a pain to mount and the 100 trailer is still sitting where I put it after the auction waiting to be gone thru and made ready. For the last several years I have used a mid-mount 115 on an SMTA. I am up to 20 acres on hay and a mower conditioner is about called for, but sitting looking forward and watching the sickle knocking down the tall grass is a treat for my back and I hate to give it up. Yesterday I mowed the lanes on the place out in Howell (different tractor, rotary cutter) and my phone buzzed. My wife texting "how's it going". I had pulled into the shade so I could read the message. Looking around me the wheat was getting tall and the breeze was moving it like waves. Sky was blue with wispy clouds. Trees leafed out and lots of wild flowers in the edges. I took a picture and sent it back as a reply. I love my seat time too! :)
