Gene,
    We had a 42 when I was a kid.  That thing was a real monster!  We used 
it 2 or 3 years and traded it on an IH 101 self propelled.

    Ralph;
    As always I enjoyed your photo. What crop are you harvesting in this
photo? Would you happen to have some photos of the large pull type combines
used in your area? That is something that were never used in the U.S.
midwest. Probably the largest pull type combing used here was the John Deere
42 and few of them.
    I attended a sale about 4 years age that sold a 42 pull type combine and
it sold for more than the 3 self propelled combines all combined.

                            Gene
