My Grandpa's sale bill from 1943

Mom's sale after my Dad died-1988--Had over 700 registered bidders. I bought the 8820 Deere combine-$28,500-wondered how I was going to pay for it.

My Dad had a little Deere washer and you could pee harder than it so my buddy brought his Hotsey over--Me cleaning--had a lot of help-they even washed my grain cart!---Tee
 
Love that first picture from Life Magazine.

Note the fundamental difference?

These days there are very few automobiles. Nearly everyone drives a PU, and many have trailers attached.

Yes, and it looks like the guys are pulling on galoshes with the clip on front....haven't worn those for over 50 years...

Speaking of Life magazines, I have an old life magazine from the 60's. An article inside has an aerial view of a large camp ground with at least 50 bumper pull trailers, and almost all vehicles were full sized sedans or station wagons, there were only a couple pickups. Of course the trailers were mostly smaller and lightweight compared to today.
