Happy New Year!

Anyone remember this?

Generally speaking, this area is for general discussion about windmills, in most cases.

Anyone remember this?

Post by Kansas Rust Buzzard »

Last night I was going through old pictures of windmill fairs past and found this, I was going to make a note in my reference library about it but really don't recall a thing. Anyone got a better memory? Thanks

Dave Schrum from Utah found part of the iron for the Tucker. The Emick family bought it and restored it. In this picture it is sitting on their trailer outside of the 4H Building in Lamar Colorado.
Dave had called me and was describing the iron he had found, I told him it was a Tucker sight unseen. Just 3 days prior I had picked up a catalog at an antique store with it in it. Otherwise I wouldn't have had a clue!

Neat, so the Emick family has it now in Lamar? I have never got to see their collection. I assume it is probably the only one known in captivity? Thanks

There is a rumor they may be going for the 2021 Trade fair. So you might have a chance yet!

The photo was in 2007 if I remember correctly.
