The International Motor Truck — 1931
| Back cover of an advertisement sheet, with a front page that reads: "International Harvester and the Romance Of Transportation. The color illustration is of two men in a truck driving on a rural road, with ghostly images of pioneers on horseback and oxen-drawn Conestoga wagons in the cloudy sky above. The text below the color illustration reads: "The International Motor Truck — 1931, Product of a Full Century of Manufacturing Experience Today the Service of International Harvester in the field of Transportation goes far beyond Agriculture. Three-fourths of its great annual output in trucks is absorbed by Commerce and Industry — a striking demonstration of universal acceptance, proof of the merit in manufacture that grows out of generations of accumulated experience." At the bottom of the advertisement is the front and back of the Reaper Centennial Coin commemorating the one hundred year anniversary of the testing of the first reaper by Cyrus Hall McCormick. 1831-1931. |
