I am refurbishing a Boss potato digger, manufactured by LeRoy
Plough Co., LeRoy, N.Y. I believe it dates to the 1880s. It is
horse-drawn with great engineering design, as rotating iron fingers
rotate in either direction by moving a lever in the center to the
right or left to engage the drive gear. The potatoes and stones
must have been thrown about because of the attached leg guard.
