Original Box

Post by rbeem »

Look what got saved from the trash! A gentleman found this while cleaning out an old IH dealership building and saved it from the trash several times. He said they REALLY wanted to throw it away. He thought somebody would think it was cool. I think he was right!
It's a little bit rough but who's complaining.
Maybe only the 2nd one known to exist from what I've found. I know I've never seen one before.

This came home with me, by the way.

It nearly got thrown away Several times by the crew cleaning out the building. The gentleman I got it from knew enough to set it aside.
I'm afraid the wife won't let me frame it and put it in the living room. I even thought it would make a really nice coffee table under glass !! Answer, No to that one also. :roll:
