Moline Plow Company

I grew up in Moline, Illinois, which is well known as the home of Deere and Company. I had never heard of Moline Plow, which was gone before I was born. Deere and Co. sued for trademark infringement early on in the life of the company. An extensive history of the company including the lawsuit can be found here: http://molineplowco.com/home/.

When I was growing up International Harvester, Deere, and Case Implements were the major farm implement producers in town.
