Saw my dad this past weekend and he passed down my grand dad's AC items. My grand father worked on AC construction equipment mainly, did a lot of training up in Springfield. He collected all sorts of pins, watch fobs, and tie clips. He has been gone quiet a long time now. Sure wish I could have heard his stories, but I was a little young. These items were salvaged from the house fire back in 1994. Sadly we lost my grand ma in that fire. My dad went through and saved some things. These are part of that collection. Also a service log my grand dad kept on all the AC machines he serviced and repaired. Very rare and personal things to me. I am greatful to have them. I felt I should share them with others who have a passion for the history and things that are Allis Chalmers.
