About this Event
The J.I. Case Company, located on 10th Avenue SW, was a corporate citizen of Calgary for many decades. Their trademark was a bald eagle, named Old Abe, perched on a globe. That trademark has been around for 160 years and represents one of the largest manufacturers of farm equipment in North America. Hear Bob Anderson from Pioneer Acres relate the history of this long time Alberta presence.
