I have seen them often in historic photos in Kansas but never seen one in real life. I suspect there are some out there though.

If you are coming to the trade fair, I will be presenting a collections of photos from Nebraska homesteaders.
You will see a couple of good IXL photos in the collection.

Wow, check out that binder! I can't even tell what it is. Cool windmill but I would rather have the binder, looks like a 5ft model!

If I had known that I could have bought you one at our swap meet last weekend. Somebody had one setting on a trailer. I didn't look at it as i didn't want to be tempted! Kevin would you share any of your pictures or are they off limits? I love that picture, windmills, horses, adobe shacks farm equipment I'm telling you it has it all!
