Antique John Deere Tractors Ebay
Farmall Tractors are part of the Case IH family of tractors, but it was the original row crop tractor, that many manufacturers duplicated. For those that are familiar with old or antique tractors, it is a popular model among collectors, and many of them were capable of taking the place of the plow horses they replaced, back in the day. Like all good things, eventually these workhorse tractors would break down, but many farmers kept their Farmall Tractors going, part by part.
As tractor manufacturers became privy to the plight of selling new tractors to farmers that would keep their beloved Farmalls alive, Farmall tractor parts became more scarce for the older models, almost on purpose, it might have seemed. Today, many of the oldest tractors are in the hands of antique tractor collectors, although there are probably still some of them in existence and working on small family farms. Farmall tractor parts still enjoy a high demand, for this purpose.
Like many of the International Harvester brands of tractors, the Farmall tractor went through several model changes from its original prototype release in 1923. Through a combination of series, that evolved over a period of time, to perform additional duties, they would evolve from their original letter series to a "super series" that progressively demonstrated more tricks. This didn't daunt some of the die-hard Farmall fans that owned earlier series tractors, that were still in running condition and quite capable for what they needed.

QUESTION:
Mom has collection of collectable toy tractors, some antique. She wants to sell but not ebay. Suggestions?
Stepfather left mom a collection of collectable toy tractors when he passed away. Most are John Deere ERTLE tractors, but some are older including an early 1900's McCormick Derring Cast Iron Tractor in Excellent Condition. Mom wants to sell the collection but doesn't do e-bay and doesn't have a lot of time to sell these. Does anyone have a good suggestion for how she could best take care of this with the least work and the best results?-
ANSWER:
Go to an antique store or fair & check out the booths. You'll usually find at least one who specializes in antique toys. She should take a list of the tractors with her & maybe an antique dealer will buy them from her. If there isn't a dealer booth there the owner will know who to refer her to. Also ask the owner if he/she knows who can appraise the items.Also, check the want ads for appraisers and the "Want to Buy" ads.
She could also put an ad in the paper once she knows their value.
