The nice thing about Gehl having been a short line, is the amount of different tractors used with the equipment in the videos. This is one of those videos, giving a sampling of what was on the farm in '49 & before then. There's even a budget tractor & horses in use. Though the horses aren't out pulling a chopper. I've included a couple other videos that are conversions from VHS. The first additional one is a few clips, of skid loader antics, from some TV show in Germany.... I think. The second is a re-post of a newer JD baler vid that I had posted on the JD board. Added it here for those of you who do not visit there.
Also, I don't know who did the film transfer for the first one from '49, but it's awfully dark. So.... I've been tasked with copying these 16mm films to see if the results can be improved. There are also quite a few more films that need to be transferred than what has been completed. Hopefully that all turns out good, because the professional conversion option is quite spendy.
