Offered for sale is a new in the box, Vintage 1996 Ertl 1:16th Scale John Deere 1937 Model B Tractor. This narrow front row crop tractor is Part Number 5904 and Serial Number 3346, which indicates it was produced on the 334th day of 1996. The tractor is in new condition and the box is excellent also with minor shelf wear. Please look carefully at the pictures for additional details concerning condition. I sell all items as is. The actual 16 horsepower tractor was produced by John Deere from 1935 to 1952 at the Waterloo, Iowa factory. The John Deere model B was introduced as a smaller tractor, to fill the needs of row-crop farmers that did not need a tractor as large as the A. It had a nearly 20-year production run, and the versions of the B can be broadly divided into three groups. The original B is often referred to as "unstyled", and includes all tractors built through 1938. In 1939, with tractor number 60000, began the "early styled" model B. In mid 1947, with tractor number 201000, began the "late styled" model B. Within the first year of production, tractors number 1000 through 3042 used a four-bolt front pedestal. Additional information about this toy can be found on page 176 of the 2025 Farm Toy Price Guide published by the National Farm Toy Museum. This is a very nice older, 29 years old, diecast metal replica that would make a great gift or awesome addition to any collection/display. Thanks for looking.
