weblet375 Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 Hi all anybody tell what this and what is its value. It was part of my late fathers collection.
justy 46 Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 The tractor looks like a Lanz Bulldog, but not sure what brand off model manufacture it is..
mb86 Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 It's a field Marshall, possibly a series 1, is it 1/32? If so I'd guess it was a scaledown.
SPN Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 It looks to me to be a G&M Originals Field Marshall Model M
chris.watson Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 Well, I’m with Justin on this one, I may be wrong of course, but the exhaust for me is pointing towards a Lanz.
catkom3 Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 Looks like a Scaledown Marshall M from 1944,William Britains did one as well,But had round holes in the front wheel's,The Lanz is very similar,But the exhaust is on the other side, https://www.modeltractorco.net/80400/info.php?p=2&pid=1701729&ack=9 Regards Joe.
mb86 Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 Stan and Joe are right, it's a Field Marshall model M...
Leakeyvale Posted February 6, 2020 Posted February 6, 2020 Considering it is labelled Marshall Diesel and has the Marshall badge on the front I can safely say it is a Marshall M Diesel. I have one by Britains from their Vintage Home Farm collection (released in 1999) but that has a driver (Major Henry Marshall) and I do not think yours is by Britains as it is quite crudely detailed, neither is it refined enough for Scaledown. When I have a moment I will trawl through all my reference books to see if I can find more info. Do you have any idea when your father acquired it? Apologies for the fuzzy pic but it came out of my database.
weblet375 Posted February 6, 2020 Author Posted February 6, 2020 Thanks for the information.i think he bought this at spalding show couple of years ago.
Leakeyvale Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 I am still ploughing through my reference books (no pun intended) but so far have has no success. I have posted a link to a Facebook group dedicated to the smaller, less well known manufacturers in the hope that one of the members knows or can suggest a maker.
Tractordave Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 Hi there - is that one of the tractors by CTF (Collectable Toys Factory) from france - they made tractors in 1/16th and 1/32nd scale. Has this not got CTF written on the bottom --- what size is your tractor Andy ? The seat may have been repaired - see here for some pictures https://www.ukauctioneers.com/auction_catalogue.cfm?d&itemID=20E9CB0FD7D728F5D0EEFECEFF5E0DEAEF27A8CB&auction=27E1CD06&action=2&rangepage=11¤tpage=1&showLots=50&sortBy=lotsort&lotView=list&imagesOnly=N

I have just had a closer look at the picture and it DOES say CTF. (very fuzzy) The repair I also agree with as the "seat" is fastened with a cross head screw!
