Mecum Offers 150 Tractors at Gone Farmin’ Spring 2011 Auction
After the success of last year’s inaugural Gone Farmin’ auction, Mecum Auctions has expanded to three vintage tractor events in 2011, kicking off with the Gone Farmin’ Spring Tractor Auction, March 26, 2011 in Walworth, Wis.
Featuring 150 tractors up for bid, the Gone Farmin’ Spring Tractor Auction is highlighted by the Tom Geyman Collection – a group of investment-grade tractors offered at no reserve. Among the tractors to be sold is an expertly restored 1966 International 1206 (Lot S33) and a 1961 International 660 Wheatland (Lot S40).
“We are excited to bring Tom’s collection to the public to showcase his passion for and high-quality restoration of these investment-grade tractors,” said Dan Mecum, operations manager for Mecum Auctions. “Hobbyists, collectors and admirers are encouraged to attend our Spring Gone Farmin’ Auction, which is free to the general public and takes place on a 10-acre property off Highway 14 near Lake Geneva.”
Mecum is currently accepting consignments and bidder registration for the Gone Farmin’ Spring 2011 Tractor Auction. Additional tractor events scheduled for the year include Gone Farmin’ 2 – an offering of 300 tractors Aug. 5-6, 2011 – and the Gone Farmin’ Sign & Memorabilia Auction on Nov. 25, 2011.
