Frank Hough added a trademark to the world's vocabulary - PayLoader - which became synonymous with all wheel loaders, regardless of manufacturing origin. Hough bought Blair Manufacturing outright during the height of the great depression in 1931, a risky move at the time but one that was to eventually reap big dividends.  In 1933, Hough changed the name of the company to Frank G. Hough Co., and set about designing a new range of equipment that could be fitted to wheel tractor such as buckets, bulldozer blades, sweepers, snow plows and other similar ancillary equipment. The year 1952 was also the year that Hough was sold to International Harvester and became a wholly-owned division of that conglomerate. Frank Hough was kept on a chief designer and the PayLoader name was retained. The machines were now sold as Hough PayLoader, a division of International Harvester Corp. With the additional financial resources that IH could provide there was a corresponding surge in wheel loader development. This is a very nice older, 66 years old, diecast metal replica that would make a great gift or awesome addition to any collection/display. Thanks for looking!
