"This is certainly the largest private collection of Ferguson models, tinplate toys and memorabilia to ever have come to auction and is most likely to be the largest in existence in the world," he said. Owner Mr Russell dedicated a room in his house to display the tractor models and had an extension and air filtration system built so he could run a Ferguson tractor engine indoors.
Massey Ferguson became the largest manufacturer of tractors in the western world by the 1970s, according to the Museum of English Rural Life.
