    Vintage 1947 Public Auction Notice - Trucks, Tractors and ONE OLD HORSE!  International, John Deere, Ford, G.M.C, Allis Chalmers
    Selling to the highest bidder; trucks, tractors, farm machinery and one old horse.
    From the estate of John C. Vroman, Jr., of Manzanola, Colorado, a January 30, 1947 Public Sale Notice.  Mr. Vroman attended the Jacob Tome Institute, graduated in 1914 from Princeton University and was a Colorado State Representative in 1921.  He was married for a short time in the 1950's to Virginia Bennett Crocker.  After their divorce, Ms. Vroman went on to marry famed architect, Mr. Temple Buell.
    This auction had everything you need in addition to "one old horse"; a 1940 Ford truck, 1939 Chevrolet truck, 1930 Model A, 1937 G.M.C. pickup, 1942 Allis Chalmers M Crawler, 1938 Caterpillar 22, Allis Chalmers C tractor, farm machinery, hay machinery, miscellaneous and household goods.  Lunch was served at noon by the Manzanola Methodist Ladies and the sale bill was printed by the Manzanola Sun print shop.  To accompany the one old horse, you could also buy one black team, one brown work horse, one sorrel mare and one sorrel saddle horse, bred.
    The large sale bill is printed on card stock and measures 12" x 22 1/2".  It shows the usual signs of age and fading and there is slight damage around the edges.  Matting and framing would disguise all damage.
