fair a photographer came by.  He took this picture and added it to his display.

After the fair, he gave it to me.  A copy of it has been added to my owner's

manual.

	How lucky you are to have that picture, George. I can see the
wheels turning in your head. grins.  Ford sure made a hit with a lot of
people with that nice clean easy to get on and off little tractor. It
was advertised by local dealers as something you could trust your kids
to operate. I wish I had a picture of us with our new 9N in 1939 but
in those days, my mother was the photographer and only took pictures of
us standing in a row - farm equipment didn't count.
