"A LITTLE GIANT"

By Ruben Michelson

Anamoose, North Dakota 58710

Pictured here is a Little Giant Tractor, one of the very few left of this make. From the information we can get on it, they were manufactured from 1912 to 1923. They started to number these tractors at 500-this one is No. 537 so it is one of the early models. The original name of the company was Mayer Bros., Mankato, Minn. est. 1876. This name is on the tractor. Then about in 1916 the Company name was changed to Little Giant, Inc., Mankato, Minn. At first is was in Iowa for sometime, then shipped to Bladdin Bros., Lang, Saskatchewan. Four years ago James McBain, Fessenden, N. Dak. obtained this tractor for his collection ,but so far has not done any restoring on it.
