'Emerson Sulky Plow' (Antique Iron)

The oldest plow in the garden collection, this rare old Emerson still has part of a wooden tongue attached. Dating probably to around 1890 to 1895 est. it is a rare example of the old Emerson line. Two of the plow parts are cast with Pat. July 25, 1890. The spring type seat is missing (probably sold to a seat collector) and one of the control levers is bent but could be easily straightened if you are looking at a restoration. Surrounded by daylilies and Culvers Root in our garden, this has always been an unusual conversation piece. SOLD
