I Starting started writing articles for Lawn and Garden Tractor
magazine about my tiller collection in 2008. I decided it was about time
to share them with people who may have not read them and may be
interested in the history of ROTOTILLER, INC. Lawn and Garden Tractor magazine's Managing Editor, Kate Goelzhauser
graciously gave me permission to do so. Also, I wrote a couple of
articles for the Vintage Garden Tractor Club of America.
Doug Tallman has given me permission to upload those as well. I
had a lot of fun doing those articles. I used my photography
hobby to supply all the photos in my articles and a lot of digging into
the history of the company. Thanks to many fine people, including
Allen Cluett, John Pattison, Dean Leith Jr, George Dunham, Donna Done,
Shirley Done Philips and Janet Done Foyle, daughters of George Done, designer of the Model
T and the famous Horse, who provided very interesting stories about
ROTOTILLER, INC.,
forerunner of the company who made the famous Troy-Bilt
Horse. I also give credit to the Rensselaer County
Historical Society in Troy, NY for allowing me to search and scan
information in their files on the ROTOTILLER, INC. and Garden Way. Click on the photo of the article you want to open.
