RE: [CBQ] Fairmont Weed Sprayer

Brian I noticed the horse. There are 20,000 photos in the Fairmont collection, I have about 2000. Most were taken in the 30s & 40s, though the collection starts with the company in 1907 and goes up into the 60s. Most of the photos were taken in Fairmont MN, or near by communities on the adjacent CNW or MILW tracks. Though there are photos of Fairmont equipment in use from the desert southwest to Pennsylvania.

In 5187, notice the man in the background plowing with a horse. Talk about juxtaposition of old and new!

 

 

Thanks!

Tom, as I said Fairmont offered several different models of weed burners. Here are a few more photos.
