Imperial Super Drive 15-30 | 1920 |
Robert Bell Engine and Thresher Company entered the tractor field in 1919 with a 12-24 model. It had striking similarities to the tractors of Kinnard-Haines at Minneapolis. High-speed open gear drives such as this were subject to premature wear from dirt and weather. For 1920, Robert Bell offered the Imperial Super-Drive tractor, obviously a product of Illinois Tractor Company.
Robert Bell Engine & Thresher Company had a good reputation in the farm equipment business and chose to enter the tractor field in 1918.
