McCormick Harvester and Twine Binder
| Farmer harvesting grain with McCormick grain binder built in 1883. Original caption reads: "The frame was made entirely of wood, iron being used only for gears, braces, etc. McCormick's first twine binder was built in 1881 — fifty years after his invention of the reaper. After that time, improvements consisted chiefly in the use of better-grade materials to provide lighter draft and greater durability." |
