There is a certain nostalgia to collecting those things we are familiar with or have grown up with. It can be a favorite TV or movie character, special dolls, or those things that we were around day in and day out. Farm equipment would fit into that last category! If you lived on a farm, you were always around tractors, plows, farm trucks, etc. They were part of your everyday life. This is probably where you first learned to drive! I will never forget taking my grandson to the Clackamas County Fair when he was about 5 (he is now 22) and he immediately gravitated to the display of tractors. They were big and powerful and fascinating! What does someone do with a life long
collection of these special vehicles when they are out of room for them??? Turn them loose to bring future collectors pleasure! That is the case with a wonderful collection of farm equipment and other vehicles currently filling a display at South End Antique Mall. Hundreds of pieces that have been collected for many years are now ready to find new homes. John Deere, Case, International, etc., are all present. There is actually a lot of artistry that goes into making these little "toys". Great pains are taken to give you all the detail you would find in a full size piece of equipment! Take time to come browse through this collection and see if you find something that takes you back to your own childhood! Here is a little "sneak peek" at the fall decor that is currently arriving at the Mall! Not too soon to plan your fall seasonal decorations!
