Help identify this old planter

[dan_41jdh]

Can anyone identify this Deere & Mansur one-row planter? The family of a deceased local club member brought this to our show, but no one can identify it. Looking for some help with identification and/or model number and approximate vintage of this unit. Handles are gone, but appears to be in pretty good shape otherwise. Interesting shaft drive goes back to the seed hopper, seed plates are with the planter.

Thanks. I'll relay that info to the owners.
