Hi Ben/Niels Basically, I am getting behind with my recent sales brochures on certain brands, excluding JD, McCormick/Landini and MF, which I'm not too bad on. The rest, including Same, Deutz, NH, even some Case-IH, I am patchy. In terms of new brochure releases over the past 18mths I have slipped back. I'd gladly buy a bunch of brochures....my interests are anything with three or four wheels and an engine, be it a sprayer, combine, tractor, spreader, anything self-propelled from any manufacturer. I have boxes of older brochures from the mid-1980s onwards (mostly early 1990s onwards) that I can swap in return. I am interested in bulk, the more the better, and if I haven't got the brochure, I will probably want it. Happy to swap older for new, just as long as I get something for my collection ultimately I'm happy. Regards Rory

Thanks for clarifying this point. You should get the next one, published 25 January, providing that payment was processed in time to put your details on the system and then send them to the printers I am not sure what the cut-off point was for that. The issue is probably being printed in the next day or two. You could say I do know a bit about the magazine....... R Day -

Thanks for subscribing. When did you actually send payment? Your first subscription copy probably won't arrive until the next one is due a week or so on Saturday. You should get it then. Regards R Day -
Looking forward to seeing the new John Deere 50 Series tractors as I was involved in sourcing all the tractors that Britains visited and know the owners personally. Not seen any pictures of the prototypes yet so hope that the engineers over in the USA and overseas have done their job and got the tractors right. R Day

Dear Painter, You raise a valid point. We hear this regularly from our Irish subscribers. All we can add to this is that the Irish subs copies are posted air mail on the same day as the UK subscription copies. We have made lots of enquiries and as far as we can establish, the delay is caused when the magazines enter the Irish postal system. I'm sorry, but there's really nothing we can do to speed up the delivery of the magazines in Ireland. Thanks for your support as a subscriber. Regards R Day -

I heartily recommend a copy of Farm Power Publishing's new book Flying the Flag by Nuffield, Leyland & Marshall salesman Tony Thomas! A great read! R Day -
Classic Tractor - January 2013
rorsday replied to Barry's topic in Brochures, Farming Books and Magazines
Tim, Thanks for that. You are a true CT supporter.....I know what 141 issues looks like on the shelf and it's a fair old pile. It's amazing how the magazine has evolved and changed over the years and almost doubled in size. Those early issues from 2001 look a bit basic and dated now, but they seemed OK at the time, given what else was out there, which wasn't much in terms of the number of other titles. I have often thought, for personal reasons, it would be nice to have my back issues bound into hard=back volumes, perhaps two volumes per year, trouble is the longer I leave it, the more expensive it will become.

Niels, I agree, Stuart has been a very good addition to the magazine with his knowledge and archive of old machinery pictures. We would have enlisted him a long time ago if it wasn't for his other magazine obligations with Old Tractor and then Vintage Tractor. The arrangement seems to be working well for both sides now.

new holland launch brochures
rorsday replied to Paul Palmer's topic in Brochures, Farming Books and Magazines
Yes, I remember getting all these. If you go back even further into time, MF had a tradition of bringing out an initial launch brochure for the MF 6100 and 6200 Series and then it has since done smaller, square brochures for the initial launch, followed by much bigger multi-pagers. I remember years ago, probably in 1998, when New Holland introduced the TS115 and they did an A4 fold-out brochure, maybe that was among the ones you sodl Paulali or perhaps you still have it. Then there was a whole sequence of them for the TL Series, a fold-out followed by the multi-page brochure. They also did one for the 70A Series, have you got that one? It was a studio background shot as well I think. I have dozens of them in my garage. R Day -
