McCormick-Deering #7 mower looks as if it has had very little use from what I see of the lugs on the wheels. Probably an easy salvage and worth a couple hundred or several hundred depending on location and buyers. kelly

Literally put out to pasture.

An EARLY tree planter.....

 

[scootergmc]

Not even worth the scrapper's time.

That's a big tree growing through the metal frame.

Wheels would bring a hundred each here

Would take half a day getting the tree out so you could move the piece.

I think the tree bound one is also a drill.

Not even worth the scrapper's time.

NOT SCRAP! Save for yard art at least.
Beautiful stuff.

“just a little finagle to get them out of there”! But interesting !

With a little effort you could possibly save the steel wheels. The mower and rake you could save them for yard art.

Not even worth the scrapper's time.

I don't doubt you on that, but worth some collectors time!

Your place, Chris??
How's the knee doing? Have to get over to
see you again. We've got the corn in &
waiting to go beans. Sounds like rain for
Monday.

Everyone that wants one for yard art has one or can find one much more easily accessible than that.

We have to face the facts that not everything is valuable and we can't save it all. If we did we'd all be up to our eyeballs in junk.

"we'd all be up to our eyeballs in junk"

I think it's fair to say many of us here are!

That is quite an interesting assortment. A few years back our widow neighbor had an assortment of yard art so I asked her if she would like a horse drawn sickle mower, if I could find one reasonable at an auction. Quite incidentally, I was at an auction and was able to buy her a genuine JD model in really good condition. She was very pleased. It is now sitting amongst some other relics in her yard along the highway.

Who in the world would want an old dump rake? It would just be something to move every time you mowed the yard. However, if I was close to that horse drawn mower I would probably be dragging it home.

Yard art.

Yard art.

A place I drive by used to have a horse drawn sickle bar mower painted up and set up on concrete blocks out by the road. I thought it was really neat. Then I felt especially bad as I had scrapped one just like it.
