For those of you who dont no who geoff warren is he used to sell and break and also kept a large collection of David Brown tractors but he packed it in a few years ago and sold of most of the tractors. ;)

I have an example of that model, D.B. 25D made by Denzil Skinner & Company LTD. Camberly in 1957. David Brown himself commissioned these models to be used 'as a display on your desk or parts counter, (dealers) or perhaps as a trophy for one of your employees. May be sold to the public at ?2 17s 6d plus purchase tax'.

They were meant to be a kit as there was an assembly instruction sheet, a spanner and screwdriver supplied, 47 parts and the engine comes out in one unit and assembles very much like the real tractor, the tractor steers by means of the steering wheel and the seat tips forward. Sadly mine has no box and is missing the decals on the bonnet but the paint is a lot better than the one listed.  No one seems to know how many were produced as there are no records. They will make up to ?1,000 for an un-boxed one in not brilliant condition in specialist toy auctions.
