Extremely scarce. Includes original, suitcase-like, leather box with handle, inserts and plate says "J.D. Adams & Company Indianapolis, Indiana" and also comes with two J.D. Adams tags saying "Adjustable leaning wheel grader" on top. Very beautiful and interesting piece with plates on both sides. Originally, was probably metal, but this one is painted orange. Unusual provenance: Personally owned by Charlie Davenport, a draftsmen at the engineering department of the Adams division. Davenport, who lost his leg in a grader accident in 1945, was given this piece upon his return to work.
Item Dimensions: 21" L.
