rubbatiti Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 As well as a couple of real tractors, model tractors and the Ferguson ephemera, I tend to accumulate quite a bit of other early farming related literature... 'The Farm Tractor' published by the NIAE 1949 'The Care of Your Tractor' published by Shell-Mex / BP not dated but for style and info. 1930s 'The Diesel & the Farm Tractor' published by Shell / BP not dated but mid/late 1950s 'Farm Tractor Lubrication' published by Castrol 1960 2 different issues of 'Tractor Care' published by Castrol 1960s /1970s 'Modern Farm Machinery' published by Shell-Mex / BP not dated but someone's marked '1935' on the cover which is probably correct from the pictures in the book. Some great tractors etc. shown in this one including Bristol, Caterpillar, International, Fowler, Fordson, Lanz, Massey Harris, Wallis and Scammell. 'Prospect for the Land' published by HMSO 1950 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubbatiti Posted April 7, 2017 Author Share Posted April 7, 2017 ..and a few more. 'Farming - An Introduction' 'Farming Equipment' Both published by Pitman 1946 'Diesel on the Farm' published by Esso 1954 'Mechanised Farming' published by Anglo-American Oil Co. 1950 'Know Your Tractor' published by Shell 1955 Quite a weighty tome this one at just over 350 pages. 'Tractors on the Farm' published by Farmer & Stock-Breeder 1950. These are worth buying just for the superb period adverts featured in them!
