I never had the toy tractors I wanted as a kid cause my parents wouldn't spend the money to buy them(said they were too expensive and were not something I really needed).So when I got old enough to buy what I wanted I started collecting and restoring the ones I never did get as a child.The age has a lot to do with the value of a toy tractor but the quanity produced of a particular tractor can be a major factor in the price also.I liked the stories behind some of my toys about who played with them and how old they are.One for instance came from a house in New Orleans that a guy was cleaning out the attic of an elderly Creole lady and found it.I later bought the tractor for a little pocket change.It had wooden wheels and a man on the seat.It ended up being a Hubley that was made in the twenties.I didn't really like it but the story told to me about where the tractor came from was interesting,he was telling me about what all she had up there in that attic and how dusty everything was.I was always an Ertl fan but wouldn't mind having some of them ESKA pedal tractors sitting in my possession.Good luck,Jack(TN).
