The Piece
1955 agricultural machinery manual.
Original green cloth binding.
Published by Deere & Company, Moline, Illinois.
Primary Description
A mid-century technical reference issued by Deere & Company covering the operation, care, and repair of farm machinery. The volume includes photographic illustrations, diagrams, and data tables documenting agricultural equipment and practices of the post-war period.
Bound in original green cloth, the book reflects the utilitarian design language associated with mid-20th-century industrial publishing. Evidence of prior ownership is present, consistent with its intended working use.
Historical Context
Published during a period of rapid mechanization in American agriculture, this manual represents Deere & Company’s role in shaping modern farming practices. Guides such as this were issued as practical references for operators and technicians rather than consumer-facing publications.

Why It Belongs in Your Collection
This piece functions as a primary industrial reference from one of America’s most influential manufacturing companies. It offers historical, technical, and visual value rather than decorative novelty.
From Viridian Eclection
Selected for its authenticity, industrial relevance, and period design.
Every piece is packed with professional-grade materials: multiple foam layers, double-boxing, directional and fragile handling labels. For large furniture we use custom timber crating. We photograph packing before dispatch and can provide images on request.
White-glove delivery is complimentary within 100 miles of Reno, NV. National shipping quotes provided at checkout. All shipments are photographed and documented. Damage claims must be filed with the carrier; we provide all documentation needed to support your claim.
Local pickup is available at Viridian HQ (Reno, NV) with 2–4 days notice. Contact us to arrange. Private viewings also available.
All antique and vintage items are sold as described and all sales are final. Each listing includes detailed condition notes and photographs so you can make a fully informed decision. We encourage buyers to ask questions — about condition, dimensions, finish, provenance — before purchasing.
Antiques are irreplaceable and one-of-a-kind. Carrier handling is outside our control once a piece has left our facility, and major carriers including FedEx do not insure antiques. We do everything within our power to ensure safe transit, but cannot accept liability for carrier damage. If damage occurs in transit, we will provide full documentation to support your carrier claim.
