Re: wheel shovel?
I dunno how good that would be in the dirt as it looks to have such small wheels on it. Though interesting it is!

Re: weel shovel?
Just guessing , but that seems like it would be handy gathering corn cobs or maybe some type of seed or nuts that were laid out on floor to dry ?

Hey Bob, You had me head scratchin all evening.
Tried to Google info with no luck
Took it to another forum and I got these responses so far.

Re: weel shovel?
Thanks J Hays,
I got an e-mail from seedburo. It's a No 227 Scoop truck, I think RP, it has rubber wheels, but I dont know witch bearings. The catolog is from 1970.
