The Louden Machinery Company of Fairfield, Iowa, established in 1867, was a well-known name in barn equipment, and this hardcover trade catalog carries a 1918 copyright. It is a good piece of American farm history for collectors of agricultural ephemera, barn and dairy memorabilia, and Midwest history. It would also make a fine reference or display piece for a farmhouse shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Louden Machinery Company, Fairfield, Iowa.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardcover with printed red paper-covered boards and a cloth spine marked Louden Barn Equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe catalog covers hay unloading tools, dairy barn equipment, horse stable equipment, litter and feed carriers, barn door hangers and other specialties, illustrated for farmers of the day.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e The cover edges and corners are chipped and rubbed, with the board showing in places.
