This 1939 Farmall F-30 has a Monroe seat. The Monroe seat must have been pretty popular as there are a lot of them on old tractors. I wonder what bacame of the monroe company?

Of course they were popular. All you had to do was spend a day on the "original" seat and you were ready for something else.
