Sharp eyes or a good magnifying glass is needed to read the information on the pin. About the collection For years my grandfather and father collected farm-related literature and advertising items, almost all 1850s-1930 and very many steam, gas tractor/engines and horse-drawn items. These include catalogs, flyers, repair lists, price lists, period thresher magazines, watch fobs and photos. The time has come to place these long-treasured items in the hands of other enthusiasts. Time will tell if eBay remains the best venue. Here is a list of manufacturers included in upcoming listings: Hart Parr, Gaar Scott, Rumely, Advance, IHC, Buffalo Pitts, Keck-Gonnerman, Reeves, Kinnard-Haines, Minneapolis Steel and Machinery, Aultman Taylor, and many more including rare early "orphan" tractor literature.
