The topic of the Great Depression got me thinking about tractor sales and how they would reflect what was the low point of the Depression. The only numbers I have are the JD numbers. Adding them up JD sold
1930 - 26,909 Ds, and the GP series not including the GP-P series
1931 - 12,884 Ds and the GP series
1932 - 1,191 Ds and the GP series
1933 - 825 Ds and the GP series
1934 - 7,095 Ds, GPs series, A series, and the B
1935 - 29,9953 Ds, GP series, A series, and the B series
After that the numbers just get bigger. Looks like 1933 was the peak or lowlight of the Depression at least for Deere. Wonder if the sales numbers from the other manufacturers would reflect the same trend during those years.
