I found this old thresher while out for a drive this afternoon. It is one of a few old pieces of equipment that sit on at this rural corner. This design was originally developed by Nichols & Shepherd Company in Battle Creek, MI. In 1929 they merged with the Oliver Company. This particular thresher bears the name of the Oliver Company so it was produced after 1929 but the id plate doesn't give a date.
