| John Deere's first articulated 4-wheel drive tractor, the 215-horsepower 8010, was introduced in 1959
It was updated with a Synchro-Range transmission, an oil-cooled clutch and other advances, and became the 8020 the following year.
This 2009 John Deere commemorative holiday ornament – the 14th ornament in this unique series – relives that holiday tradition and highlights the John Deere 8010 Tractor.
Each hand-painted pewter ornament is packed in a velour pouch stamped with the John Deere trademark and the year of issue.
These ornaments make ideal gifts for the antique tractor enthusiast, a popular item for collectors, and a great link to roots for children of all ages who have left their farm home. The ornaments are also nice heirlooms to pass on to future family generations. Early ornaments in this unique series have become rare collector's items, and are frequently sold or traded at collector's shows and on internet auction sites.
This ornament has been created in a one time production run that will limit availability and ensure their continued value. |
