Default Info needed on this Lime Spreader

We have had this Busy Bee Lime spreader for some time now, does anyone have anyinfo on it? All i know is that they use to pull it behind a horse drawn wagon that was loaded with lime and they would load up the spreader when it needed to be right out of the wagon.





Everything on it is in perfect working order, i keep it all greased and oiled up so it stays nice.

Also does anyone know where to find new decals for this? in the photos you can see the outline of the decal, but it is not there anymore, i would like to put decals back on it.

Thanks!

No problem Jebaroni, i do that to all our stuff sitting outside, i get it all greased and oiled up, even if its in bad shape, why let it get worse?

So no-one has any info on this little thing? Darn-It!

I am still looking for info on this, I know a while back in some magazine, maybe Farm Collector, there was some info on it, and someone had decals for it, but I can not find, and I dont have the resources to find it.

Any help is appreciated!

I have a lime spreader that looks just like yours. My spreader has the name little giant on the side, it has the same decal location, size and shape. Not saying you are wrong but what leads you to think that it is a bee? I have company info for my little giant at home on it and time period of its production, if you still need it or would like it, let me no and i can get that for you. I can still see and read the decal on mine to get color and lettering style off of it.
