I am from the land of cotton but not much Oliver equipment was used. In the 40&#039;s Oliver offered the No. 4 one row horse drawn cotton drill. In the early 40&#039;s Oliver sold the No. 5 two row check row planter. In the 50&#039;s most of the Oliver planters had plates that were used for cotton. Oliver did sell some harvesters known as strippers(not pickers). Strippers would get the whole bole and left the cotton trashy and the price was docked. Oliver made the No. 10 stripper in the early 50&#039;s, model 23 and 43 from the early 60&#039;s on. An interesting note is that a model 23A cotton stripper sold at auction at the secondary HPOCA show at Greenville. Oliver cotton equipment is rare since JD and International got the jump. In TN there were a few strippers sold in southern middle TN at Elkton Farm Store owned by a former Oliver district fieldmanRichard Bondurean).
