Use any adjective you wish, and it would no doubt be appropriate, from “Superb, Huge or Perfect” in describing the 175th Expo. I witnessed the 150th Anniversary at Rollag, now this the 175th, but it is very unlikely I will live to see the 200th. It is safe to say it is unlikely to get better than Albert City in my lifetime! Colin Johnson and John Ahlers, you did good! Case people from the world over were there to share in the glory, the numbers of which nearly swamped the space available for display. Records were set, from the 580 […]

by Tom Collova The Case Expo at Albert City, Iowa, was amazing, with more than 500 pieces of Case equipment.

The owner said it ran but not […]

Greetings to all Heritage members! What can I say? We just returned from the 175th anniversary show at Albert City, Iowa. If you missed it, I feel sorry for you. I think I can say this was probably the largest gathering of Case equipment and Case people ever. The final count was 509 Case displays, and the show set a new attendance record of 18,796 visitors. We, of course, got to see many old friends and make new ones as this is what it is all about. A very pleasant surprise was to see Eleanor Porth and her family from […]
