0 New Hollander Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 At the LCN show show in Holland there's always an exhibitor with models from the German Democratic Republic. I think his name is Broekema and I believe there was an article about him and his collection of Eastern German models in Agritoy magazine once. Maybe @agribouwer or @stehos know. What I could find on the www, these models were made by Dewag in 1/25. They were not for sale to the general public. Made for dealers could be correct. Here are some other models they made. Dewag also made larger scale models (1/5) for exhibitions: Here's a link to a collection on the German forum Thomas´s Sammlung - Sammlungen - Landtechnikmodelle in 1:32 - Agrar Modellbauforum | Landtechnik & Modelltraktoren in 1:32 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Cornish-model-farm Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 The real Fortschritt combines were imported into the UK by Bonhill Engineering and badged as Bonhills. Some of the Fortschritt rape swathers were badged as Shelbourne Reynolds in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
