I kind of like the different questions and themes, helps keep some tractor related content in here, though I certainly don't mind reading most other things just the same, don't matter, I'm just one reader LOL !
The question is, what sacred old dealership items do you have be it from an dealership you were involved in or maybe something you have collected, we did toy night, how about the other old fun junk ? LOL !
I can start off;
We sold Ford, late 60's mid 70's, was an old long established dealership too.
Unfortunately, I do not have all of my cherished items together for photos, but a few things I have I can mention
Pam clock with the blue and white, Ford Tractors Equipment logo, that hung over the parts counter, a huge blue and white canvas banner with the dealership name and the same logo, we used to display it at the fair with the equipment display, I am still researching to see if any old fair photos exist.
I have a huge old columbian vise, painted Ford blue from one of the work benches, of which I have one of those too with a motor and grinder wheel on it.
I have old invoice pads and similar business forms/paper, the plaque with an award for hay equipment merchandising, few old NOS Ford oval keys, some other odds and ends, even the grease gun off the service truck. When the town historian published a history book about the town, in their appeared an old photo of our dealership with 11 brand new N series all with mid mount sickle mowers and I believe a front broom sweep, I am not sure where I place the book and some later photos of the place defunct, but on the end of the building is the old red Ford script logo and the Dearborn logo. I will have to gather up these items and photograph, scan what have you. I have other odds and ends, can't recall them all, but kind of some nice nostalgia from an earlier era that I kinda grew up in.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
