Back in the 60s we had a Massey Harris combine, Special 92 ,I think. I was a young kid, but I could run it by myself. Also helped Dad put a new engine in it. 16' header seemed huge. 😊

Des céréales très éparses faciles à battre de courtes pailles, très peu fournies !!! Ce qui explique ces énormes machines d'aujourd'hui avec des barres de coupe infiniment larges de 15 /20 mètres ! Un bonjour de FRANCE le 28/01/18

My neighbor here in Ontario had one of those combines from new and used it until he got a M-F 300. The old girl eventually went for scrap after rusting away under a tree for years because nobody wanted it. It was one of the very first ones made and we tried many times to find someone who would want it for it's historic value. Maybe it was just too soon for it to have had any value but I thought it was sad to see it go. One thing I do remember about them though was that they had a nasty habit of catching fire because of the location of the engine under the throat like that. Chaff could build up and then start to smoulder before bursting into flames if you weren't careful about stopping to clean it.

The 21 might be 75 years old, but you still have to admit it's a very impressive machine! WWII wasn't just won by bombers, fighters, battleships, and tanks. The Massey-Harris 21 and 21A were right in the fight, too!

I am from Saskatchewan in Canada. As a teen, I started on a Massey 21, auger table. My uncle had a canvas table model. They were both a little old when I started (late 50s). Before we owned them, they had been used by local custom harvesters who went down to Texas in the late spring and followed the harvest northward through Oklahoma, Kansas, and on up until they would get home in late August to take care of the harvest up here. I always enjoyed the romance (if that's not too sappy) of those times. Great stuff!

I should note, I am not Marilyn. I am Lloyd. For some reason, the KZbin account appears in her name! Although, she is a good farm girl, and would have some stories of her own!
