The Oliver Chilled Plow Works had been the sole producer of tractor plows for Henry Ford's tractor (Fordson). However, Henry Ford was beginning to show more interest in his automobile business than tractor production. J.D. realized that if Ford pulled out, they would lose a large portion of their business. The Oliver company started to experiment with the creation of a tractor of their own. The first tractor they produced was called the Oliver Chilled Plow Tractor.

"I was born and raised on a farm in South Central Iowa. My Dad bought his first Oliver in 1945 when I was 8 years old. We farmed with Olivers. I worked at Bailey Implement in Knoxville, IA from 1957 through 1960, Van Zee Implement in Pella, IA from 1960 through 1964, Spencer Steel Building and Supply (Oliver Dealer) in Spencer, IA from 1964 through 1967 and Ray's Farm Store in Estherville, IA from 1967 to 1969. I started farming with Olivers again in April, 1969. Oliver equipment is truly 'The Finest in Farm Machinery'."

For over 25 years we have collected Oliver Tractors. And we have done extensive research on the authenticity of the Oliver decals. Our passion for Oliver Tractors lead us to find the best printing-manufacturing companies when we decided to sell high quality decals to other owners of restored Oliver Tractors.
