McCormick-Deering Manure Spreader
Image
View of the inside of a McCormick-Deering manure spreader. Stenciled markings are on the inside of the back of the spreader. The markings show levels to help estimate tonnage per acre of manure. A factory decal is on the left side of the spreader. In later years these decals were moved to the outside to avoid being covered.
