Auction Details:

Steiger Tractor, One & Only, Boardroom Photograph, 1976. Complete History Known. Insured Shipping Available. Fargo ND. 

 

This is one of 4 large color photographs taken by Steiger Tractor. They were taken in 1976. They were used in advertising and literature. This one was selected for the boardroom at Steiger.. The photos were taken in the Palouse country of the state of Washington. This tractor was hauled out there for photographs and then made its return trip to Fargo. They wanted a more ominous terrain than the flatland with multiple hills and valleys suggesting that Steiger can take on anything. The photos were presented to the corporate executives in 8 x 10 and given to the office.  Scott Anderson was the head of Advertising at the time. When Steiger closed its doors the framed picture was given to Dan Hofland ,. marketing director for Steiger., rather than being discarded. Dan has graciously agreed to part with it and allow Steigers top fans around the world to have the opportunity to add it to their collection.

Steiger is a tractor brand that is manufactured in the United States. The Steiger Tractor Company was founded in the 1950s by Douglass Steiger and Maurice Steiger, brothers who were farmers near Red Lake Falls, Minnesota. The Steigers first built a tractor in their workshop for their own use out of truck components, before beginning broader manufacturing and marketing of tractors in the United States and Canada.[1][2] The tractor brand was acquired by Case IH in 1986, who continued production of tractor models under the name Steiger.[3]

The tractor division of Steiger Farms was moved to Fargo, North Dakota, in 1969. It was acquired by Case IH in 1986, which later became part of Italy's FIAT Group.

Under CEO Eugene Dahl (formerly VP of Purchasing for the Melroe Company of Gwinner, ND) they have been one of the few successful mass-producers of 4WD tractors in the world. In the 1970s, International Harvester company of Chicago purchased a 30% stake in the company. This stake was later sold to Deutz-Fahr of Germany in 1982.

Case IH, formed from the merger of Tenneco's Case with the agricultural arm of International Harvester, purchased Steiger in 1986, and the familiar lime-green color of Steiger's was retired as CIH's red took over. The Steiger name disappeared for a while, but was re-introduced on the 4WD tractors in Case IH's stable as their flagship line, they can also be purchased as a New Holland. The 2009 models are branded as Case STX Steiger and are offered in power rating from 200 hp to 500+ hp, with a Quadtrac option on most models in the lineup.

Steiger has built tractors for other tractor manufacturers and distributors under the International Harvester and Co-op Implements brand, such as, Ford and Allis-Chalmers.

Steiger licensed their tractor designs to RÁBA of Hungary, which built RÁBA and RÁBA-Steiger tractors. Vandel, of France, also licensed the Steiger design and built tractors under their name.

Former Steiger President Jack Johnson later formed Titan Tractors in Fargo to re-manufacture and retrofit old Steigers.

 

American Tractors, or AmTrac, in England, retrofits and rebuilds old Steigers

Currently, there is a very active facebook group, Steiger Tracot Enthusiasts. The memories of what was will continue for generations.

I recently had a conversation with one of the Melroe family. He informed me that at one point finances were so tight that they actually risked losing both Melroe and Steiger. Fortunately, we all know the outcome. Seemingly well in control of things, like a duck there is a lot of action going on below the water line.
