More Information


These Twin Valley farmers are using a steel wheel tractor to pull a corn stalk harvester (tried to research equip.) or large combine. It looks like the plaque on the larger piece may say Minn .... Wisc. Hard to read. The front tractor appears rare in that I can't find another with a rear stack. Collectors should know the maker by design.

Titled; Souvenir of Twin Valley, Minn -- Addressed to Miss Clara Saxum of Fertile MN from (Sincerely yours as B/4), E. J.  -- Some genealogy history found, Edward and Clara Saxum Hodous.

Postmark looks to show 1923 but I believe the equipment and photo itself may have been circa 1890's - 1920. Letter on reverse is dated July 2nd, 1909 with a July fourth greeting and looks like the message is that the 4th will be spent in Ulen? by the family.

Slightly bumped corners. Used and posted. Please see photos and email with any questions prior to purchase. Thanks for looking.
