The wife and I went to two auctions this weekend. Saw some interesting things sell wit prices all over the map. Saturday, we went to an estate sale where a son was selling off his parents estate. The implements were all junk. They had three nice tractors though, that I thought were plenty cheap. -John Deere 2840, 3800 original hours, almost new rubber all around, Hiniker cab that was actually real nice, ran great, one owner. $7,000. And they had to beg to get that much.
-John Deere 2640, about 4,000 hours, fresh overhaul on engine, rear end, and brakes, JD Loader, good tires, real nice tractor. $8,000-
-John Deere 4010, diesel, hours unknown, decent rubber, needed paint, wide front, new seat, $5,000 and had to work to get it.
On Sunday, went to an annual fall consignment sale, locally known as the "junk sale". Old John Deere two-cylinders broke the bank. Old styled B's that barely ran and looked terrible brought $1250-$1750. They had a pair of rough old 530's that ran mediocre, one brought $4500, the other brought $5500! Decent bigger usable tractors didn't bring much, old rough antique's brought top dollar and then some. I bought an old sear's & robuck wagon gear that was pretty good for $100, and a really nice New Idea gear for $250. To top it all off, somebody stole my brand new B&W tow & stow tri-ball reciever hitch of the back of my truck. $130 for the darn thing and somebody stole it!

History of the Field Marshall Tractor - by Anthony West. Any restorer who has some knowledge of turn of the century farm machinery, will recognize the name Lanz Bulldog!! This machine was to say the least unusual in its appearance. The huge flywheel and coffee percolator shaped exhaust. Along with square body lines and cylinder head protruding forward of the front axle. Would become the visual differentiation that people would quote to separate the Lanz from other period machines. The Marshall company based at the Briannia Works in Gainsborough
