German Language book

Covers the deep ploughing of low lying ground with ploughing engines, and culminates in the largest set of ploughing engines ever built in the early 1950s, with 4 engines to pull one plough that cuts 2 metres deep.

Has early pictures of some Fowler ploughing engines, and a selection of these last ploughing engines that were still working in the early 1970s pulling the largest plough that was ever built

Not a lot of value if you cannot read German, but the picture still have some value and interest to the enthusiast.

Check out the youtube clips of these engines at work:
