Holt Stuff in Stockton

The Haggin Museum in Stockton, California has Holt related material in their collection. They might be more co operative than trying to go through Caterpillar to get pictures and plans of old tractors.
25 years ago most of the old Holt factory was still standing in SE Stockton. The site has now been pretty much flattened. A couple of small out buildings of the old Holt factory were still standing about 5 years ago, I don't know if anything from the past is still currently standing on the old factory site.
The Haggin Museum also has the archives of the Stephens Bros. boat building company.
Stockton is an interesting place, but the city is bankrupt and a lot of the area is pretty grim, just something to keep in mind if you are planning a visit.
