[SEL] Vaal Old Wheels show pics

Hi Jerry,
Nice pictures.
Those Horse Gears were called Horse Powers here in the U.S. of A.
I have seen ads for up to an 8 Horse Power one.  
That would be four teams attached to four arms.
Usually the tumbling rod would be right on the ground.
 
There were also Dog Powers that could also be powered by your children.
The ads said something like,,,, Your kids will love to do this.
The Dog/Goat/Kid Power was an inclined platform to "walk up" powering a belt.
They also offered larger ones like that for a single horse or mule.

Hi Everyone,

I hope you enjoy them. Due to the current financial situation we had a lot 
fewer exhibitors/engines than last year but a good time was still had by 
everyone.

Keep the revs up (or down)
