The Pre '30 Tractor Auction - 2024

The Twin City 40 went through several iterations and ultimately came into its final form by 1913, and remained so until production ended in 1924.  In August, 1920 the 40-65 was tested in Nebraska. In the brake test, it developed 65.96 horsepower, and in the drawbar tests it exerted a maximum pull of 10,280 pounds for 49.71 horsepower. This example, No. 1418, has an older restoration and is in running and driving condition.  It is one of the earlier examples of the dozen or so known recorded and probably a Type A.  The tractor has been shown and plowed with in the UK before being brought back into the US for the auction.  It still retains it's original carburetor and KW Highbar magneto.  The tractor originally came from the US and was taken to England by Roger Desborough. 

It was found "in the wild" in North Dakota still on the farm in the 1980’s by Roger Baumgartner, editor of the Prairie Gold Rush Minneapolis Moline magazine.  When Mr. Desborough relocated the tractor to the UK he hired the well known firm of Percival Engineering to do extensive work to the tractor including a new crown gear.  The bull gears have been built up and repaired as well.  Bull gear patterns exist and are actively being poured by other collectors now if the new owner chooses to go that route.

The crankcase has been repaired long ago.  It will hand start with all the ease that turning over nearly 1,500 cubic inches can!  The clutch yoke used for the belt pulley had been repaired extensively and broke at one of those repairs during the open house.  It is a common part to break and luckily, a fellow collector was having new ones cast for he and some friends so a new yoke will go along with the tractor.  The tractor will need considerable radiator work. There is a chip in one of the belt pulley bevel gears that is very old and doesn't seem to affect the operation.  It will need some shim work when the new yoke is installed.  Make sure and check out the videos at the end of the photos as well as the article in the English Vintage Tractor magazine.

Rare set of rear wheel extensions!  Has worn lugs, includes mounting tabs, original rims.

The popular Twin City 25-45 model was built from 1913 to 1920. It sold new in 1917 for $3,850. Featuring a four-cylinder 6 1/4 x 8 inch engine, it weighed 16,000 pounds. Except for its size, the TC-25 embodied the same design as the TC-40. Minneapolis Steel & Machinery also built engines for Buffalo-Pitts, Bullock, Monarch, Reeves, Hackney, Sawyer-Massey, Yuba, and others.  There are only about half as many 25's left as there are 40's.

This tractor, No. 3089, was previously unknown and unlisted among Twin City 25's.  They are rare and seldom come to market.  For the last 50+ years the tractor has been in the back corner of a barn in northern Illinois.  It is a very old repaint that we think could be cleaned up and stripped down to some original paint.  A very complete and unmolested tractor in surprisingly good condition.  The tractor was very dry when found.  Over a week was spent lubricating and getting everything working again before an attempt to start was made.  After all of that was done, it was hand started.  Original Kingston 5 ball carburetor, has a replacement Case magneto, nice gearing, original starting crank, and Detroit lubricator. Radiator had various plugged tubes when it arrived and we plugged a few more. The fan blade has been repaired. The tractor has original lugs and skid rings. The tractor has been driven around our lot for the first time and will be available for driving at our open house. 

This Twin City 40 Scale Model tractor is very well built and is very proportional to an original tractor. It is believed to be approximately 1/2 scale. This unit runs and drives well and is powered by a Wisconsin AC4 air cooled 4 cylinder engine.  The engine is started from the platform just like the original.  The tractor is gear driven.  A really well done scale model!  A lot of fun!

International utilized their successful single cylinder gas engine line to enter into the tractor market.  They began with a chassis built by Morton Tractor Company.  The friction drive used in the Morton chassis quickly proved unsuitable under heavy load, and so it was replaced by gear drive in the 1907 Type A model. The Type B superseded the Type A in 1908. Numerous modifications were made to the Morton chassis for the Type C tractor of 1909. This is when the “Mogul” name was applied and was became available in 20 and 25 horsepower versions. 

This tractor came from a very early and nearly unknown Montana tractor collection.  It hasn't appeared before now on any lists of Type C Moguls.  It is serial number TL2346F and is a very old repaint. Engine is loose and running.  Please watch this listing for video.  The tractor has good gearing and is a single fuel model. Included with the tractor is one rear gear guard and one radiator dust shield. It has lugs and skid rings. Engine number UB3904 and head stamp matches. Oiler needs additional piping.  It has a clutch pulley and replacement roof tin.  It has a broken water pump eccentric and missing water pump plunger. The front bolster mount has an old repair.  These tractors very rarely come to market. 

Rumely’s 1912 purchase of Northwest Thresher Co. of Stillwater, Minn., brought with it the Universal 20-40 tractor. A. O. Espe had designed this tractor, and several companies sold it, including the Minneapolis Threshing Machine Co. Its two-cylinder opposed design used a 7 1/2 x 8 inch bore and stroke with a rated speed of 500 rpm. Soon after purchasing Northwest Thresher Co., Rumely christened this model as the GasPull, simultaneously rating it downward to a 15-30 model.   This example, Sn. 2738, is an excellent restoration with nice decaled pinstripping.  The tractor runs and drives and gearing is in nice shape.  This tractor graced the cover of Antique Power magazine several years ago.  Rebuilt cab with fabricated brackets. Has starting crank and Dixie magneto.  Kingston 5 ball carburetor. Cylinders have repairs on bottom sides.  Front head has large crack across the face with an old repair.  

Known as the tractor ahead of its time, the UDLX was a dual purpose tractor. The general idea behind the tractor was that a farmer could work in his field all week and then clean up the machine and head into town that weekend. When operating as a tractor the UDLX had a top speed of 25 mph, but when in automobile mode it could reach nearly 40 mph. This tractor, Sn. 310502, wears an older repaint and runs and drives.  A cab kit is included with this tractor so it can be fully restored back to original configuration.  It is an old repaint and a prime candidate for restoration. This is the second ULDX built with a cab and the engine has been rebuilt. Tractor does need a new battery.  This will take significant body work, but is a worthy project.

Production of the model 12-25 began in 1912. Like the smaller Averys of that era, it also used a two-cylinder opposed engine for its power plant. These tractors are able to pull three plows regularly and four under favorable conditions. This example, No. 18301 has been restored and is a great running tractor. Contractor lugs on rear. Kingston dual 5 ball carburetor. Rebuilt radiator. KW model T magneto. Good gearing. Original toolbox. Motor number WB4329. Differential gear has a cracked tooth. 

1909 - 22 HP Side Mount Advance, Engine number 10825 Built in Battle Creek, Michigan. This engine came from the Christenson collection in Conrad, Montana, then to the Linden, Washington show and has been in Central California since 1979. The two row Lap Seam boiler has a Lefever firebox with the extra water leg for straw burning. The factory optional wide drivers are in good condition and ready to go down the road. The 22 HP Advance engine is a fine all around engine and can be used for a variety of uses, such as Sawing, Plowing and Threshing. Boiler tubes were changed in the 1990's and some upgraded piping has been done over the years. The back head has a bulge above the fire door which has not hurt its calculations for operating pressure in past inspections. The engine has a current California Certification and was last fired in May, 2023.Aumann Auctions does not Certify Pressure Vessels. All ultrasound measurements are for guidance and boilers should be inspected by potential buyers at their own discretion.  ***See documents tab for previous inspection report and UT scan information. ***

1913 -12 HP Advance, Engine number 14020 Built in Battle Creek, Michigan. This engine came fromthe Brooks, Oregon show in 1984 and has resided in Central California for the last 40 years. Thetwo row Lap Seam boiler has a water bottom boiler. The 12HP engines are perfect for threshing andlight sawmill work, or just to fire up for a Sunday afternoon ride through your pasture. The enginesare very manuverable due to their small size and side mounted rear wheels. The rear wheels werere-bushed in the 1990's. Was featured in the 1993 remake of the movie Of Mice and Men. Holds acurrent California certification and was last fired in May, 2023. Aumann Auctions does not CertifyPressure Vessels. All ultrasound measurements are for guidance and boilers should be inspected bypotential buyers at their own discretion.  

The Waterloo Boy model R was first offered in 1914 by the Waterloo Gas Engine Company. After a successful 3 year run, the Model N was introduced which was very similar to the Model R with a few upgrades. On the Model N the transmission was updated to a 2-speed forward with reverse, and the steering was updated from chains to the automotive design. This model N tractor, No. 28884, is a nice running example that wears an older repaint.  Don't let the old paint fool you, this tractor runs out nice and drives well.  A great restoration candidate to make into a really nice tractor.  New fuel tank and radiator with a correct Dixie mag, rubber on front and rear. Clutch bracket has been brazed. Bull gear mounts have been welded. Fabricated starting crank. 

The Motomeccanica Balilla was produced in 1930 by Motomeccanica of Milan, Italy. These tractors were designed to help modernize and simplify farming. These tractors were very popular in the 30s in the Italian countryside but have become very rare today.  One of the smallest little tractors you’ll ever see!  Easily fit in the back of a pickup.  This is a beautifully restored example on full steel with parade bands in the rear.  Taking this to a show in the US will be guaranteed gather a crowd!

The John Deere model D is the longest production run of any John Deere model tractors. These tractors were produced from 1923-1953 and represents the advent of the famous Two-Cylinder design. This tractor No. 35034, has undergone a full restoration and is in great condition. It comes complete with a rare KW lighting kit that utilizes a friction drive KW highbar generator.  It also has a rare power take off option with the large "funnel" PTO guard.  This is a really tough accessory to find for this early of a tractor.  Other items include the correct carb and Dixie magneto, correct style muffler and also has rubber skid rings and lugs for parading. This is a really nice restoration worthy of sitting in the lobby of an office!  Runs and drives nice, all the hard work is done on this one!

Avery Company offered this 8-16 model in 1914 as their answer to the small tractor trade. Weighing 4,900 pounds, it had a drawbar pull of 1,800 pounds, and used a two cylinder opposed engine of 5 1/2 x 6 inch bore and stroke, delivering its rated horsepower at 750 RPM. Nice running tractor, Older repaint. Contractor lugs on rear. American Bosch magneto, fabricated fuel tank. One rocker arm has been repaired.  Does run!   Pistons built up and machined. Cylinder bored to match piston.  Oil control rings in back of piston new valves, guides and springs, new first and second gear. New pinions. Good gearing

Avery Company offered this 8-16 model in 1914 as their answer to the small tractor trade.

Freshly built radiator with brass tubing. KW Model T magneto. Fabricated fuel tank. Dual Kingston 5 ball carburetors. Rocker arms have been repaired. Rear wheels have multiple welded spokes. One exhaust intake manifold has been repaired. 

Freshly built with brass tubing,  Nice!! 

For a short time, General Ordnance Company christened the old Denning tractor the “National”, but in 1920 the “G-O” emerged. Two models were offered that year, a 14-28 and a 12-22. Both were of the same general design.  This tractor is an older restoration but very functional. It’s been used in numerous plowing demonstrations and exhibitions in South Africa and the United Kingdom.

Francis Lindauer had a passion for preserving steam powered equipment. this 19,500 pound, 25 ft. by 8 ft. steam trailer has steam engines, water pumps, and line shafts which he engineered and put together with his two sons, Mike and Phil. This trailer has a steel frame and wooden floor with heavy duty axles and 16 inch 12 ply tires. All engines, pumps, and turbines are in excellent working condition. The steam trailer was last exhibited at a show 12-15 years ago. Before storing, all lines were flushed out and filled with hydraulic oil. The steam trailer has 5 Detroit oilers with U.S. and Penberthy water injectors. All Engines have Pickering governors. When this steam trailer was exhibited at a show, many enthusiasts stopped to take a second look. The trailer is homemade and there is no title. 

The 50 horsepower steam engine had a 9 x 10 engine which operated at 150 psi. During the years 1913 to 1923, Case built 1,639 of these 50 horsepower engines. In 1914, it retailed at $1,670. The boiler appears to be essentially the same as was used on the earlier 45 horsepower engine. Road speed was 2.3 mph at a standard engine speed of 250 rpm.  This engine is serial number 35510 making it one of the last one built.  It has a butt strap boiler that will possibly need repair before running.  It has good gearing and a Case 300 lb. gauge.   Please note that this boiler is being sold as is, without any guarantees and as a static display item. The boiler is untested and non-certified. Potential buyers are welcome to inspect the boiler. 

Will fit Lot #18!  Fits both gas and steam tractors! 

The Geiser Manufacturing company released the Tweleve-Ton in 1910.  It featured a double cylinder engine for more reliable power.  The engine produced 72hp at 160psi during testing when new.  The engine weighs in at 24,500 lbs and has 6ft driving rollers on the rear.  There are very few Geiser rollers that are still in existence making this a really rare opportunity.  This would make a very worthy restoration candidate for someone looking for something unique.  This engine needs considerable work, but is also considerably rare!

There are only around 3 or 4 Geiser rollers left and this is the most complete one.  It’s possible this is the only 12 Ton to survive.

Gearing is good on the engine but it will need boiler work.  The bottom of the front tube sheet is bad but the barrel where the jacket was is nicer. Most of the jacket that was easy to get to has been removed, but the last of it will need to be done by taking the engine off. 

The grates, injectors, smoke stack and lubricator are there. One water tank is bad but the other two look better but the consignor has never put water in them. The smokebox door ring is damaged and really needs repaired before being installed on the engine for travel. It has a sliding pinion you move by had instead of a clutch like most of the tractors had.  Grates are out of it for inspection.  It also has a Peerless gauge to go with it.

Owned by the same family in Minnesota since 1982. Has been at Minnesota’s Machinery Museum in Hanley Falls since owned.  It has been used 2 days per year at the Pioneer Power Threshing Show on the museum grounds. Before that it was owned by Albert Kling of Donelly, Minnesota and used at their threshing show for 20-30 years. In 2012 a complete restoration of the boiler was completed. A new boiler was made by Lund Machine Works of New Ulm Minnesota. A new crankshaft, connecting rod bearings, new preheater installed and the governor rebuilt at that time. The engine was also repainted. It has been well taken care of since the rebuild, just some minor repairs and adjustments. The family has also ran the engine since 2012 at the threshing show with it being used mostly on a sawmill. Inspected by the State of Minnesota every two years. Most recent was June of 2023. Boiler was built for 200 lbs. pressure and the state rates it at 150 lbs. psi. The boiler was made with a thickness of .375 inches. All points tested measured at .38-.40 inches at the latest inspection. A copy of the lasted test is included. This engine is as close to new as one can find and has been well maintained and cared for. For questions and viewing of engine contact the auction company.  Please note - this engine is being sold from Hanley Falls, MN and is not on site at Aumann Auctions.  It will not be there at the open house.

This Shaw is in incredible original condition and would make a great showpiece!  There are very few known and will go right into a collection of Shaw garden tractors and engines! Engine is loose! 

The Whizzer motorbike traces its roots back to the 1930s when it was first introduced by the Whizzer Motor Company in Los Angeles, California. Designed as an affordable alternative to traditional motorcycles, the Whizzer motorbike quickly gained popularity among budget-conscious consumers looking for economical transportation during the Great Depression. With its lightweight frame and simple construction, it offered a practical and accessible means of getting around town. The two-stroke engine provided sufficient power to propel the bike to speeds of up to 30 miles per hour, making it suitable for everyday commuting and recreational riding This is Bike # H-2919, Belt drive.

A product of its time, the Highwheeler represented a bold step forward in transportation, offering reliability, versatility, and rugged performance in an era when the automotive industry was still in its infancy. Characterized by its distinctive high wheels and robust construction, the IHC Highwheeler was built to tackle the rugged landscapes of rural America. Its elevated ground clearance and sturdy frame made it well-suited for navigating unpaved roads, gravel paths, and even fields, allowing it to reach remote locations inaccessible to other vehicles of the time.

This example is a very nice running and driving highwheeler, it has added electric start which makes this super easy to start.  It's an early model with an external oil pump.  At some point it spent it's life in Idaho as it still has an Idaho state control number tag in place.  They may be the original tires on it but they are nice enough it's hard to believe?  Two cylinder opposed engine with a two speed transmission runs and drives really nice.  It's an older but freshened up restoration with a Solar acetylene tank, brass horn, and rubber lined wooden wheels.  With the electric start and a reliable runner this would really make a nice parade or show vehicle!

The IHC Model D Highwheeler stands as a remarkable testament to the dawn of the automotive era. One of the defining features of the Model D Highwheeler was its versatility and utility. Equipped with a spacious cargo area, it could accommodate various loads, from farm produce to construction materials, making it an indispensable tool for farmers, ranchers, and businesses across the country. Its rugged durability and dependable performance made it a trusted companion in the field, capable of withstanding the rigors of daily use in demanding environments.  This example Sn. 606, is restored, and has the original air cooled engine, has new upholstered seats and top. Brass head and tail lamp. New rubber wheels. Runs and drives.

Engine turns over. Older repaint. Water cooled engine. Has Bosch magneto. Intact coil box. Chain drive. Later model carburetor. IHC marker lamps. Engine does turn over. 

1924 Best 60, Sn. 1934 A and engine number 5100. This is a great running and driving numbers matching Best 60 that spent it working life in Canada. Has the serial number tag that references the correct engine number which is stamped in the block, and the serial number of the tractor is stamped in the frame rail. Correct hard to find Stromberg MT-4 carburetor, Bosch ZR 4magneto and Stewart vacuum tank. Cooling system holds coolant and has been updated with a stainless water pump/magneto shaft.

1924 Best 30, Sn. S 2474, engine number 5107 and Royalty Number 3614. Runs and operates well with clutches and brakes working as they should.

Banting Company first marketed gas tractors from 1925 to 1927, these tractors were essentially Allis-Chalmers tractors. The first tractors did not have raised lettering on the top of the radiator tank, but did have the Banting logo on the front of the radiator on the hood side. There is not a lot known about this model as it is a very rare example.  Older repaint. Has new recast manifold. Zenith carburetor. Lugs with skid rings. Belt pulley. New air cleaner assembly with fabricated bracket. New canopy with tin.   This is one of three known to exist.  The tractor was used in Manistee, MI for threshing grain and operated a saw mill. 

Heinrich Lanz AG in Mannheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany, manufactured the Lanz Bulldog starting in 1921. There were many versions fo the Bulldog produced up to 1960. The Heinrich Lanz AG Mannheim was renamed John Deere Lanz AG in 1960, and production ended. This example, Serial Number 630099, displays an older restoration and features new brass radiator sections.  The head has been repaired.  Earlier model with electric start or start using the steering column.  Engine is loose and seller states it ran a few years ago. 

The Massey-Harris General Purpose tractor was one of the earliest four wheel drive examples. This particular tractor has numerous features that sets it apart from a standard production tractor.  There is also a lot of original paint except the sheet metal.  Some of the differences are the engine, rear end, an instrument panel in the back of the fuel tank and more!  Really a rare tractor that has a lot of history that is still to be discovered. This tractor is stamped with serial number “X 1”.  76” tread. Partial original. Belt pulley. Has all 4 wheel mud scrapers, electric start, wico mag, PTO, draw bar. Runs. Engine number K404-1. *Tractor was running, but mag lost spark and could not get it back. Mag will need attention. 

The Frick Company of Waynesboro, PA was a well regarded company in early American agriculture.  Their steam engines had a very good following in the sawmills of the east and it eventually led to their entry into the gas tractor market.  That first tractor was the Model A 12-25.  It utilized an Erd engine and was sometimes referred to as a 12-20 early on.  The tractor had many design characteristics shared with the Huber crossmotor tractors.  The large front wheels made driving them a breeze and they handle well in the field.  The Frick is a much rarer tractor though with only 8-10 known to exist in all conditions.

This tractor is serial number 944 making it one of the later ones known.  It's believed serial numbers started at 500.  It's is probably a 1918 or 1919 model.  This is rarer than most of the others because of the factory canopy with original leatherlike top.  It even has the original fasteners as shown in the photos.  The original honeycomb core radiator is still in operation.  The gearing is exceptional!  The original wooden toolbox, piping and fasteners are very evident all over the tractor.  It's an older restoration, has a side hill hitch, Bosch magneto, angle iron "L" lugs with skid rings, glass jar air cleaner assembly, Kingston carburetor and has the original starting crank.  With the exception of it being repainted several decades ago, this tractor is a great original example that hasn't been mistreated, neglected or altered in all of it's over 100 years.  Just notice how often we used the word "original" in this description!  We like this tractor a lot!  It starts easily and runs nice.  There is one exhaust manifold leak that looks like an easy repair with a new gasket.

The Model Y was short-lived for Rumely, with total production topping out at 245 units. It was actually the same tractor as a 25-45 R with minor adjustments done to raise the engine RPM. Of the 245 total units, 100 of them were actually converted type Rs. This Y is an older repaint and is mostly complete.  This unit, Y18, is one of the converted model Rs and is in nice running condition. Older repaint. Parade Rubber on rear. Has priming tank, air cleaner, cast magneto cover. 

These little tractors are very rarely seen with only less than 10 in the hands of collectors.  There has always been so little known about these tractors except they originated in New York.  There is some association with Rome Mfg. but nothing has been proven conclusively.  Only until this tractor came to light as a last minute consignment to The Pre-30 Auction has new information surfaced.

The seller attended Cornell University in Ithaca, New York in the early 1960's.  There was a man named Charles Brown who was an inventor that had donated his estate to the university.  The seller had come upon the tractor through a friend at Cornell and was able to purchase all these decades ago.  Our seller stored the tractor away at a family farm for about 15 years.  As a career military man, he moved and always took the tractor with him from Texas to Florida.  He retired around Pensacola and has now decided to sell the tractor.

He did some research and found the patent for the tractor from 1933.  Charles S. Brown had 42 patents credited to him that included at least 3 iterations of this tractor and a larger 4 cylinder tractor that strongly resembled a Fordson.  Here is a link to Mr. Brown's patents: Charles Brown Patents

This tractor is on factory Goodrich hard rubber tires that are very nice condition for their age, still have a tread pattern showing.  The engine certainly looks like a two cylinder LeRoi but we found no badging on it to verify that.  The engine part of the patent does show in the drawing so it could be a Brown engine.  The mag is a Bosch and the carburetor is a Zenith.  There is a definite resemblance to an International Harvester sickle bar mower.  Some of the other known Rome/Brown mowers have IHC parts.  On this particular model, all we could find were the sickle guards marked with a round IHC. 

It has all original paint with the exception of the sickle bar which was painted at some point in time IHC Blue.  There is an old crack in the front yoke that we have photographed and has been there for quite some time.  The motor is loose and has not ran for at least 50-60 years.  We are going to lubricate everything well and see if we can get it started before auction time, so watch this site for updates.

UPDATE - We have started the tractor, driven it and even mowed with it!  It's awake after it's long slumber!  Wonderful little machine, two cylinder and a sharp sickle bar.  Ready for hay season!

The Advance-Rumely 25-40 “X” Oil Pull was simply a conversion of the earlier 20-35 “M” tractor. In fact, detailed production records indicate that a substantial number of the 25-40 tractors were a converted from 20-35 tractors already built and in warehouse storage. The 25-40 used the same bore and stroke dimensions as the 20-35 but carried a rated speed of 700-725 rpm.  Sn. X1847, repainted, spoke flywheel, bar style lugs, skid ring, cast magneto cover, air cleaner, needs seat with bracket. Engine is loose! Oiler does not have a crank handle, and we could not get it to turn to test. 

If you are looking for an easy starting, great running Oil Pull that you can actually get out and do some work with, this is the tractor.  It's a nice, unmolested, dependable tractor from a well established collection.  It's an older restoration but was done long enough ago it's developed a "patina" that makes it look great.  The Type R, 25-45 built from 1924 to 1927.

Bristol crawlers were produced from 1930 until Track Marshall took over in the 1970s. The Bristol 10 crawler featured a 4 cylinder Austin engine and a 3-speed transmission.  This neat little crawler has recently been imported from the UK and would be a unique addition to most any collection in the US. Runs and drives! Check out the video!

Due to heating issues the radiator size was increased at serial number 4251. This example No. 8765 has been repainted and is in running condition. Repainted. Round spoke front and rear wheels.
