Does anyone know if iron age was bought out by oliver? I recently bought a single row potatoe planter that is an iron age, and was told by another person that it was an oliver or that they had bought out iron age, just looking for further information on this.

Iron Age was a trade name used by Farquhar Equipment. They were bought out by Oliver.

Thanks terry for the info, I have recently found out more about this subject, but being that my planter is from the real early 1900s , it can't be considered an oliver until much later
