Front cover of catalog featuring a framed portrait of Cyrus H. McCormick surrounded by foliage. A putto is pulling away a drape from the portrait with one hand, and holding a mirror in the other hand. Below the portrait is a paper reading: "A Record of Sixty-Four Years of Success," which is above an illustration of a man using a horse-drawn McCormick binder in a field. In the lower right corner is written: "Cyrus H. McCormick, the inventor of the Reaper, was elected a corresponding Member of the French Academy of Sciences, in 1878, for 'having done more for the cause of Agriculture than any other living man.'" |
