The Siler - Boesling auction was held near Defiance, Ohio on June 29, 2024. Whalen Realty & Auction, Ltd of Neapolis, Ohio conducted this auction. Near the end of the auction Auctioneer Jason Whalen walked the balance of the farm auction items. In this video he is selling mostly off of a row of pallets. I was able to buy the John Deere No. 1B corn sheller. Research shows that John Deere first produced the Model No. 1B corn sheller in 1936. A feed table or basket rack attachment was available from the factory. This JD corn sheller features the basket rack. It appears that this sheller would still shell corn as crank and flywheel turn freely. Hower the fan shaft is frozen up which was designed to blow the chaff out.
