Tried google but came up with state route in Ohio
while dealer apparently in PA.

I can only get a part of a picture with none of that information. I live in western Ohio.

Water Street and Tyrone, PA are connected by state route 453. Water Street isnt really a town but a designation of a few houses at the intersection of rts. 453 and 22 in Huntingdon county PA. There is a route 350 near there but not directly between Tyrone and Water Street. Im not familiar with the dealership name.

I do not know, but trying to ..out Google you.. I came across this website which I found to be very interesting. The upper section gives photos of the ..Pylon buildings.. The lower section gives lists of past dealers by state alphabetically. Running through the PA listing quickly the name of the dealer shown on your sticker did not show up. You are welcome to check the other 49 states if you wish. 8>) I usually try not to specify Google in this forum and go with the genericweb search.. term just seemed to fit better here. I should probably take my wifes advice and set my phone to use Duck Duck Go as my default search engine.

Well, the 154 Loboy was produced from 1968 to 1974.

And so that dealer existed at least as early as 1968.

Leroy, I think you are seeing everything he wanted to show. That is an implement company sticker on what I think is a tractor or maybe a Cub Cadet lawn tractor. He is just using the street or town information in the cracked up part of the label to possibly find the dealer location.

Apparently near Tyrone Pennsylvania. I did some searching, seems Grover Murray Farm Equipment advertised in the Tyrone Daily Herald in the early-to-mid 1970's. However newspaper/ads are blurred unless you pay up.

There is quite a bit of info in the old newspaper ads. It was called Grover Murray Farm Equipment Supplies. I found their telephone number, their location, some advertising slogans, an article about a robbery there... What info are you looking for?

tractornate · May 1, 2022

According to the article about the robbery where $56,000 was stolen in 1975, they were located 7 miles southeast of Tyrone, just off 350.

Thanks for all the replies. I was just wondering how far the tractor migrated to north central Ohio. If its not too far away I like to get on the bike and go see if the building still exists or if its a vacant lot. Just something I like to do once in a while, see the history before its demolished. Lost a lot of cool stuff in nearby Cleveland in the last 20 years. Locomotive repair shop, Collinwood yard on E.152nd, Westinghouse building near E.55th, some really awesome decorated turn-of-the-century schools; but none more beautiful than Collinwood memorial, built on the site of Collinwood elementary, which burned and killed 172 children....but it stood vacant since 1978 and the city wanted it gone.

Tyrone, PA and Water Street, Pa are kind of west central PA between Altoona and State College.

Leroy · May 1, 2022

None of that information will show up on my computor. No sign of a street name or picture of tractor.

Anyone know where this is?
