Comments:

Matched pair of side boards of a threshing machine. While it is not complete, it serves as an example of HSE&Mco paint colors and pinstriping. Very few Items from the HSE&Mco still exist. These parts were bought at an Estate auction at Watsonville PA. According to the heirs of the estate, these were found in a local barn under a haymow. They are now preserved local to where they were made.
