I wish I could see all the names of those dealers and their towns. I'm in Hunterdon County, but the Roy Company and G&H are familiar names to me.

Just hold the Ctrl button down on your keyboard and rotate the wheel on your mouse to make the page bigger to read the names.

I did that but the resolution isn't good enough to make out the small-print town names.

Chuck,
Does your dad have a collection of tractors?
One of them being a 990 that he pulls?
Is his name Fred?

If that's the case, let me know, Please.
Bruce

Bruce, No my dad is long gone. Chuck

Sorry to hear that. First I thought the picture was one of him. That man looks a lot like one on the other side of the county. That was why I wondered. He also has a son named Chuck. Just a wierd coincidence.

There's a WD45 near here in original paint that still has the decal from Sussex Farm Service Great Meadows on it. Did you know any of the dealers from down this way? Smith Tractor (Ford)in Washington, Frank Rymon & Sons in Washington (Oliver), Esposito Farm Equipment in Stewartsville (MF, not sure which side they were before 1958), Don Cheske in Hackettstown (John Deere), Pickel's in Bloomsbury (IH), John M Saums (A-C), Poniatowski Brothers (Case), Hall & Lachenmayr (John Deere), Larry Levine (Ferguson/MF) Van Zant's (IH) all in Flemington, Piel Brothers (John Deere) in Pittstown. Only Smith and Rymon are still around.
