They have 3 speeds and; generally, they go to the Rallys under their own steam along the road. I am English and used to be a member of a Steam Club in England and being a boiler maker, I have worked on several engines. My Uncle owns a steam engine. I though on coming to America, my steam hobby would stop awhile, but was amazed to find so many steam engines over here. I have gotten much
enjoyment out of your magazine, so much so, that when I return to England I would like to continue having it.
This is our seventh one – do you folks like them? If you cut out the picture on the heavy lines and paste on light cardboard with rubber cement you will have a three dimensional picture you can view in the old fashioned stereoscope viewer glasses. Please let Roy know if you like his pictures – and us too. Now, we had a letter from Robert A. Howard of 30 Everett Drive, Rochester, New York 14624 and he writes us: ‘In regards to your stereoscopic views, your instructions advise to use rubber cement to mount the pictures to pasteboard. Rubber cement has a short life expectancy of maybe four or five years at the most, and having a high sulphur content, causes perman-staining and degrades the fiber of the paper. The views mounted with a good pure wheat paste will last longer and not be stained or materially damaged.’ (I certainly thought this was worthwhile passing on to you folks – Anna Mae)
Do you have a special place in your heart for the good old days of life on the American farm? Do your ears perk up at the sound of an old Johnny Popper John Deere? Do your eyes widen at the sight of a vintage Stover stationary? Then Farm Collector is for you!
