Description

Vintage 1936 JOHN DEERE REPAIR CATALOG #13D Wagons Cutters Weeders Cultivators
Excellent condition JD Repair Catalog No. 13-D series C-25. Appears to have had little to no use.   Matching front and rear blue cardboard covers.  Very strong condition: very minor wear, light crease vertically on the front cover, hand-written "Brillion inside."  Pencil notation inside front cover "802 wagon"  Staple and binding tape spine is in excellent condition with minor fraying at top and bottom of tape.  Interior pages are bright clean and mark free and number 155 plus lined "memo" section in the back.  The 1st 38 pages have a small 3/16" tear about a third of the way from the top, but they do not detract from the appearance of the catalog.  Excellent example of a vintage John Deere catalog in exceptional condition.  Please see photos to evaluate cosmetic condition for yourself, as condition ratings are subjective.  Photos are part of the description.
This piece is part of a huge accumulation of original vintage Farm Equipment items (primarily paper items like manuals, brochures, letters, advertising, etc) that came from a Family Owned West Michigan Farm Equipment Dealer that had been in Business continually since the 1920's.  A early Licensed Dealer/Distributor for JOHN DEERE and many other farm and hardware companies this business was housed in the same building from it's opening date until the recent retirement of the owner (it had been in the same family for the entire life of the company).  This business housed an AMAZING collection of original farm equipment related items dating from the 1920's up through some current day items,  and it is now our pleasure to be able to offer part of this treasure trove to farmers, equipment owners, and collectors.  We have have literally thousands of pieces that will be listed over the upcoming months.  Primarily paper goods including service manuals, operator manuals, advertising brochures, dealer items (like order books, finance contracts, dealer bulletins, and much more), there are MANY hard to find items that appear to have never before offered on Ebay that will interest collectors.
While we are happy to try to answer questions and to locate specific items, please remember that we are novices with farm equipment items and the more information in your request the more likely that we can provide a timely and accurate answer.  While we are happy to try and fill special requests for specific items, please remember that we are dealing with thousands of pieces that were not organized when we acquired them, so while we will attempt to help, it may require some time to provide an accurate answer as to whether we had a piece or not
