Summary
Publicity brochure from the H. V. McKay Massey Harris trade literature collection. This flip brochure provides an overview to a new and "modern" range of Sunshine Mounted tools. The products advertised are all matched to the "New" 745 Diesel tractor which is featured on the rear cover.
Several brands are represented alongside photographic images. "Modern" and "Easy handling" are two main selling tools used. It also promotes the low cost of the tools and the versatility of these "universal" products. With "Easy-to-attach" products, this brochure is geared towards farmers on orchards, canes and vineyards and general cultivation.
There are several interesting hand written notes throughout the brochure. It is possible that these notes were written by an agent whilst liaising with a customer.
