Plow identification

Anyone know what this plow attachment might be for?

Thanks

From the pic it is hard to tell what size this plow is. Maybe a plow for a garden tractor?

Also, from the pic, it is hard to see what is attached to what, without a better angle to get a 3d dimension. But the crank looks to be connected so it can adjust the possition of the front hookup. I suspect it has to do with adjusting the forward/aft or pitch of the plow (relative to the tractor) to point the 'nose' of the plow into the ground (a form of depth control). Just a guess. It appears this plow is possibly hooked to a drawbar, and the 'frame' on top attaches to a hydraulic or mechanical lift mechanism (like Allis Chalmers used to have). Appears the plow doesn't attach to a 3pt system.
As I say, just a guess. Any idea the brand?
When I first saw the pic, I was thinking it (top frame) might be a 'drawbar' for a drag hanging out to the side to knock down standing dirt clods and keep soil moisture in. But on closer look, the 'frame' appears to not be integral to the crank assembly sticking out to the rear.

Thanks for the reply. So far the Allis Chalmers looks to be the cloest guess. Here is a picture from the other side. The plow appeare to be 10". It is not 3 point, looks loke a single point and drawbar hook up like the Allis Chalmers has.

I have an Allis 2 bottom and 3 bottom, and the mounting system looks nothing like yours. I converted the 2 bottom over to a 3 point unit, and it works great!

Before they had 3pt hitches.. the farmall's had a 2pt type hitch. I have an old JD cultivator that would mount to the front of the tractor and the cultivators would be on each side. Maybe it's for a 2pt.. and your's is missing the pull bar?
W/ the red.. maybe an old McCormic or International plow?
