Massey Harris Pulverator plow

I asked the question below on the Massey Ferguson site and did not receive any answers so I am hoping someone here can help:

Years ago, Massey Harris built a trailer plow called a "Pulverator"; it had a vertical spinning shaft with short rods sticking out of the shaft at the end of each moldboard. It was designed to break up clods and produce a plowed field that did not need further tillage before planting. That plow did not sell well and most are probably scrapped by now.

Anyone have a picture of this type of plow, or maybe own one?

Thanks for the vidio Hal. The tractor and plow is owned by Robert Crawford and driven by Pete Ruddle. THE outfit was working at Casterton near Stamford South Lincolnshire. They have a working weekend every September and I go and do the commentry for them from one of the people carriers. Every exhibit has to work and be made before 1950. MJ
 
Hal,
Thanks much for your response with the video and photo. I have a Whirlwind Terracer; that and the Pulverator would make quite a pair at a plow day.
I demo my Terracer every Spring at our annual plow day and it generates a lot of interest.
One question for you....do the Massey Harris people get irked with you about the green paint?
