For your consideration today is this wonderful lot of 13 different, genuine vintage 1950's Allis Chalmers dealer promotional postcards that feature five different tractors plus all types of machinery, with all the items remaining in totally unused condition!! Plus, shipping for the USA is set at just $1.49, with no other fee's at all!!
If any of you have done business with us before, you know how well we treat our customers, and that we try to describe items very well in order to help you, the bidder, make a sure and confident bid! So, welcome new or return buyers, and ask that you read on about the neat items we are selling, and be sure to read all the info as well!!
The lot of 13 different postcards are just great looking pieces that display so nicely, and include a number of fine AC tractors and a number showing their new line of machinery. These are guaranteed original pieces from the 50's which would have been issued by local dealers as promotional or advertising items. They remain in excellent plus, unused condition, all being stored in fine fashion for all these years, and are very crisp, clear and bold, with no main fading or discoloration except for a tiny amount along a border on a couple cards, but such minimal stuff!
They might show just the very, very faintest signs of some handling on a couple that keeps them from being mint, but really are just plain super looking cards! They all measure 5.5" by 3.25" in size. Included in this lot are the following items:
Model WD tractor with Forage Harvester marked with stock No TL-1162-A-545 on the back.
Model WD45 tractor with All-Crop grain drill, marked TL-1162-H-556
Model C tractor with Roto Baler, marked TL-1162-C-545
Model WD tractor in three scenes with the Forage Harvester, no numbers
Model WC or WD tractor with mounted Corn Picker, marked No. 1
Model C tractor with two way plow, has the rare little Cowboy figure on the back, marked No. 5A
Model G tractor with cultivator, no numbers on back

Models CA and WD tractors on one card, shown with plows, no numbers on back
Model WD 45 tractor with All Crop Harvester, marked TL-1162-B-556 on the back
The last one is of Everett Mitchell, America's most popular Voice of Agriculture along with Whitey Berquist and his Homesteaders orchestra, which was heard regularly on the National Farm and Home Hour that was on NBC radio stations, sponsored by Allis Chalmers of course. Marked TL-714 on the back.
They make wonderful gifts for the older farmer who might have had these tractors back in the 50's. Again, just $1.49 for USA shipping!!
This is a super lot of Allis-Chalmers unused post cards that would be a fine addition to any vintage agriculture advertising or tractor & farm related collection!
