The authors chronicle changes and improvements and provide hard-to-find information on design and development of the models, serial numbers, codes, production numbers, and anything else an F series enthusiast could want to know. Indispensable to anyone restoring a Farmall F series tractor, the book also provides a clear and fascinating picture of an icon of agricultural history and the machinery of Americana.

The stock market crashed and the country's fields turned to dust, and the tractor, that workhorse of American agriculture, was one more casualty. But in the face of disaster, International Harvester kept improving on its successful Farmall tractor and finally arrived at the F series, which includes some of the finest and best-loved tractors of all time.

These are the tractors that pulled American farmers out of the Great Depression. Archival and modern color photographs and detailed text follow the series from the F-12, F-14, and the vastly popular F-20 that replaced the Farmall Regular to huge machines like the F-30, which was better-suited to breaking the Great Plains.

This copy of Collector's Originality Guide: Farmall Regular And F-Series is signed by the author, Oscar H. Will.
