History

1953 JD Model “50”

SN 50105585

 

            This tractor entered the John Deere Warehouse April, 15, 1953 and was shipped April 16, 1953 to the Omaha, Nebraska branch with a final destination of Cozad, Nebraska.  The tractor was configured as a row crop with a gasoline engine and Roll-O-Matic front.  [1]

 

            Rollie Brown of Gothenburg, Nebraska, an expert restorer and collector had restored the tractor giving it a complete overhaul, paint job and new tires. I purchased the tractor at auction March 24, 2007, where Rollie sold many restored John Deere tractors. The tractor is in show room condition.
