Photos of the inside of old dealerships?

Does anyone have any photos (or know of some online) of the inside of old Oliver dealerships? I also thought that years ago i had seen pictures and maybe measurements on here of a parts bin out of an old dealer. I can't find that anymore. Thanks,
Josh
 
Years ago, I think when Sherry was editor of HPOC, she did an article on those bins. It gave all the dimensions and I think some schematics. I don't have any idea what issue it was, but it's been quite a long time back. You weren't imagining things.
 
Randy: If I remember right those bins were to be used to store parts in for the new Model 60 tractors. We had some of those.
 
That's the way I remember it. The 60s had come out and the war had started, so they advised dealers to build those to store repair parts and keep staff busy since there was little to no new equipment or tractors to sell, so I'm guessing it would have been about 1942?

I know where there's some of those in an old dealership that's been closed for almost as long as I'be been around. They built a new block building with big windows in front and sold Oliver for just a few years. It's pretty much been a farm shop since, but you can see through the windows and can see those shelves as plain as day.
