Description

This agricultural implement seat was manufactured by Barlow, a company known for producing corn planters and other farm machinery during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The seat is constructed of cast iron and features a perforated pan design intended for use on a tractor or horse-drawn implement. It is characterized by seventeen vertical, oblong cooling slots along the upper perimeter and two stylized, scroll-shaped cutouts flanking the lower portion. The central field of the seat displays the manufacturer name BARLOW in prominent cutout lettering arranged in an upward-curving arc. A single circular mounting hole is located on the integral mounting tab at the base of the unit.

Approximate Width: 15 – 18 inches.

There are scattered paint chips and areas of light surface rust visible on the front, particularly along the outer edges and inside the letter cutouts.
