Hi:

Just wanted to let everyone know that I got my copy of the latest issue today in Cedar Falls, Iowa. Looks like a lot of great reading, can't wait till bedtime.

Please check out the 2255 toy that the HPOCA is selling on page 49. If you would like one or more, be sure to order them right away. Spec-Cast will have the final model on display this weekend at the National Farm Toy Show in Dyersville, Iowa. They will also be passing out fliers that look like page 49. My contact at Spec-Cast thinks he can pass out enough fliers so that the 2255's should sell out in the next couple of weeks.

All profits from the sale of these toy tractors will go to the Hart-Parr Oliver Foundation to help with the creation of the HPOCA Museum.

I will attach a copy of the ad that you can print out and send in.
