Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Allis-Chalmers' history is as rich as the Persian orange paint that graced its farm tractors for nearly six decades. From its beginnings in the farm equipment business in 1914 to its rise as the third largest tractor producer in sales in 1936, Allis-Chalmers has been known for innovations in design and sales and distribution.

"Vintage Allis-Chalmers Tractors" is a one-of-a-kind book (it's the first large-format giftbook history of Allis-Chalmers) for collectors, historians, and tractor enthusiasts, providing a detailed history of the company's legacy along with over 100 spectacular photographs. Illustrations include black-and-white historical photos, colorful period advertising artwork, and contemporary color photos of collectible tractors.

"Vintage Allis-Chalmers Tractors" covers all models from 1914 on, including the Monarch and Advance-Rumely models. Peterson and Grooms also discuss Allis-Chalmers' various acquisitions and the mergers, plus the current ownership by FiatAgri of Italy.

Also recommended: "Vintage Farm Tractors," "Vintage Ford Tractors," "Vintage Case Tractors," "Vintage John Deere," and "Vintage International-Harvester Tractors."
