[AT] Thoughts on small combines, other harvest machinery and where it takes us (continued)

[Guy Fay]

The Allis All-Crops and Gleaners were completely separate lines of combines-
nothing in the All-Crop line was ever converted into a Gleaner or
galvanized. Yes, for some years, Allis sold two different lines of combines,
built in different factories, completely different technology, different
colors.

The original All-Crops became the 60 series combines, the 40 was a smaller
combine designed later for use behind an Allis B sized tractor and was
somewhat different than the All-Crop, being more of a scoop-shovel type
combine. The 40 was discontinued early- Allis histories say because of low
sales but in truth probably more of a patent situation.

So was that grain bin mounted high on the combine and was it galvanized
instead of painted?  There was something like that in the neighbor's
bone yard when I was a kid.

This may be what was in your neighbors bone yard, Len.  I spent a good
amount hours as a boy riding on the ladder of one of these and
watching the wheat fill into the bin.
