I'm SO EXCITED The Keller family Tractor collection is open to the public. On Octber 7th and 8th in Forest Junction, WI what has to be the rarest and one of the largest John Deere collections in the world is open to the public.

The Keller family tractor collection consists of more than 525 vintage tractors, mainly of the John Deere and Minneapolis-Moline brand lines.


It's been nearly a decade since the collection was open for general public viewing.

The collection contains 54 first-built units of a particular model, a handful of the last built
units from a model line, six experimental tractors and two that were the only ones made for that model.

Others must see tractors in the collection are the first John Deere 83o diesel made in 1958, the first general purpose BW from the production line on Feb. 21, 1935


A friend of mine has seen this collection..... He said it is simply stunning

I will be going both days and posting hundreds of pictures on my website I can�t mention here

Took a quick look at the map, and found an airport at Appleton called Outagamie County Regional Airport. Would anyone know if there is a private airport any closer to the Keller site? I don't need a long runway, so any airport is OK. Also, does anyone know the address of the Keller show?

Is there more information about this somewhere? I"d consider heading over, but I"m in Minnesota. So I"d like to know the details first.

You are absolutely correct. I had the pleasure of attending the Keller Expo a number of years ago. You would have to travel the entire United States to see what this family has in one location. Besides John Deere, they also have numerous amounts of other tractors and to top it all off, the Keller family are great people.

Thanks for post this. I live 12 miles east of the Kellers. I have been there a few times. I'll try to get there on Sat. My brother in law would enjoy see it.
