Recently came across this old book. Looks like it was printed for John Deere in 1957. I was
wondering if there was any value to it?

Got some of those here dating back to even showing horse drawn JD equipment.
They are pretty common.

When I went to Jr. High and High School we got a different New one every year. I think I still have a couple. Don't remember if it was Ag Class or FFA . They Consolidated our School In my Junior year and I don't think I got any then. Gene

RWB .... Well, considering you brought it up, let us know in what way do those textbooks contradict or dispute Darwin's findings? Or the other way around if you choose.
