About ten years ago an old friend gave me a very basic corn picker. This year I finally got time to put it into working condition. As you can see it is very basic just one long husking roller and fan into an auger to the elevator. Leaves a lot of husks but, it sure is better than hand picking the three acres I raise for stove and chickens. Does anyone know the make of this gym? The only ID I can find is on the frame that connects the trailer (P3325). All the locals I have talked to here are scratching their heads and the original owner has passed on.

Appreciate the input. Allis Chalmers had been mentioned to me by one of the locals by the process of elimination but, it was just a guess. Having a national forum really helps get a better idea about possible models etc. In rebuilding gear boxes, ect. everything has been good old fashion American standard and easy to obtain. That is why I like working on the old machinery.
It is actually a model 35 the 33 was the mounted picker.
