Tractors plowed ahead impressive bids at Polk auctionB y K a r i n M i l l i m a n
NEW PARIS, Ind. —Darrell and Lorene Ebbersten were serious collectors of all things farm-ing. With 40 years of gathering up their favorites, they had amassed a huge amount of farm items including tractors, parts, toys, collectibles, literature, trailers, and primitives.
Due to Covid-19, live auctions could not be held so Polk Auction Company held an online auc-tion for the couple. The auction was held over four days.
The first day saw the sale of the of tractors, implements and trailers. A John Deere Wagner WA-17 attracted more than its share of interested bidders. This beautiful green and yellow trac-tor was a complete nut and bolt restoration, complete with pictures taken during the process. This was one of only 27 built. It had 8 x 600/70 R30 tires. It gleamed in the sunlight and stood waiting proudly while the price just kept climbing. It finally slowed down and came to rest at a bid price of $148,000. What a ride!
Coming in not too far behind this bid was a John Deere 8020. It was one of 100 built and was all original. It showed 7,482 running hours and would run and drive just fine. With 24.5-32 tires and a three-point hitch, this one came with all the original manu-als. Darrell was the second owner of this tractor, which was bought new by Goldmine Plantation, out of Donaldsonville, La. It sold for the impressive bid of $137,500.
A John Deere 6030, with dual hydraulics, and a quick coupler showed 2,874 running hours. It had 20/8-38 tires on it and ran and drove great. This green giant brought a high bid of $46,000.
A Waterloo Boy came complete with automotive steering. Ebbersten could tell them all the histo-ry on this one as he had owned it for more than 30 years. With grass and mud still holding on the metal wheels, this one waited for the bidding to stop. It went all the way to $56,000 before that happened.
Ready for a new home, this John Deere WA-17 remodel was the top price selling item at the
auction. It sold for $148,000.

Liberty Bell banks ring loud with collectorsB y L a r r y L e M a s t e r s
The Liberty Bell is one of the most iconic images in the Unites States. In fact, it is hard to imagine an image that more profoundly represents Americans love of liberty and freedom. The bell not only has a long and distinguished history, it has become the focus of many different collections over the years, including the collecting of Liberty Bell coin banks.
The Pennsylvania Provincial Assembly commissioned the Liberty Bell in 1752. The Whitechapel Bell Foundry of London cast the bell with the lettering “Proclaim LIBERTY Throughout all the Land unto all the Inhabitants Thereof” (Leviticus 25:10)
embossed on the bell. The bell hung for more than 20 years before the battle for independence began in the Pennsylvania
State House (now renamed Independence Hall) in Philadelphia. Contrary to what children are taught in history books, the bell was called the Old State House Bell, not the Liberty Bell.
Like many patriotic icons, the history of the Liberty Bell is, at times, as much fiction as it is fact. The
Liberty Bell gained national recognition and fame in 1847 when a short story claimed that an aged,
patriotic bell ringer rang the bell on July 4, 1776, announcing America’s independence from England. While the bell was hanging in
the Old State House on July 4, 1776, it did not ring, and, in fact, the bell had nothing to do with America’s independence. It did, however, ring on July 8, 1776, along with hundreds of other bells in American cities to coincide with the reading of the United States Declaration of Independence.
Following the Revolutionary War, the Old State House Bell was adopted as a symbol of abolitionist societies in Philadelphia and around the country. Abolitionists, in their fight to bring freedom to all Americans, first called the bell the “Liberty Bell” in 1835 in the New York Anti-Slavery Society’s journal, Anti-Slavery Record. The name, Liberty Bell, proved popular, and the bell has been referred to as the Liberty Bell ever since.
While no one is absolutely certain how the Liberty Bell acquired its famous crack, many historians believe it cracked while ring-ing after the death of Chief Justice John Marshall in 1835.
In 1876, the Centennial Exposition was held in Philadelphia, but the Liberty Bell did not go to the Exposition; however, a potpourri of Liberty Bell souvenirs were sold bearing its image or shape, and state pavilions contained replicas of the bell made of

Service took over the cus-tody of the bell after World War II. The bell was used as a symbol offreedom during the ColdWar and was a popularsite for protests in the 1960s. It was moved fromits longtime home in Independence Hall to anearby glass pavilion on Independence Mall in 1976, and then to thelarger Liberty BellCenter adjacent to the pavilion in 2003. The bellhas been featured on coins and stamps, and its name and image have been widely used by corpo-rations in advertising pro-motions
Today, the Liberty Bell weighs 2,080 pounds. Its metal is 70 percent copperand 25 percent tin, with the remainder consistingof lead, zinc, arsenic, gold
and silver. It hangs fromwhat is believed to be its original yoke, madefrom American elm
For more than 100 years, the Liberty Bell’s images have been used onsmall coin banks that were either sold or given awayas a promotional item.
The first Liberty Bellcoin banks were for adults. They originated in themid-1800s, in a time when children were expected tobe “seen and not heard.”One of the rarest series Liberty Bell banks is thebank from the 1876Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia. This exhibi-tion represented the firstofficial World’s Fair held in the United States, and theLiberty Bell banks sold atthe exhibition, while only 4½ inches tall, representedAmerican idealism at its best. Today, these tinypieces of American pride are valued at $175.
A large outline of theLiberty Bell hangs overthe right-field bleachers
at Citizens Bank Park, home of the PhiladelphiaPhillies baseball team. This outline of the bell is illuminated whenever one of their players hits a homerun. And one of the soughtafter Liberty Bell coinbanks is the Liberty Bell piggy bank, issued by the Philadelphia Phillies as apromotional item during agame. While this bell bank is only valued at $16, itadds a wonderful sense ofwhimsy to any LibertyBell bank collection.
There are hundreds ofLiberty Bell coin banks on the secondary marketseach with a mystical appeal. Like America, these banks representsomething fragile, some-thing imperfect, but some-thing that has weatheredand endured since 1776.

A John Deere Wagner WA-14 was all original. This was one of only 31 built so it was indeed a rare one. It ran on 18.4-34 duals, and would run and drive after a bit of coaxing. It had some starter problems that needed to be tended to but still sold for $78,000.
Bringing a bid price of $30,000 was no problem for an Oliver 1655. This diesel had 4,999 hours running time and was four-wheel-drive. It had dual hydraulics, which helped with the price. It was parked in running condition, but had some fuel problems after sit-ting that needed to be sorted out.
Some hit-and-miss motors were also a hit. A Waterloo seven horse-power brought a high bid of $3,200. It would turn over. Coming in right behind this was an eight-horsepower motor which also turned over. It sold for $3,100.
If you wonder why the prices are so impressive on the tractors, you only need to see what the parts sell for and that helps to explain it. Two John Deere fenders, 30-40 series, which were an open station fender set, brought good money. These were so sought after that they brought a bid of $3,750 for the matched pair.
A simple John Deere new generator warning light took a bid of $1,900, while a John Deere crawler top link sold for $1,850. A John Deere canopy, which was also new, took the sale price of $1,800.
Signs did extremely well. A bid of $20,000 was needed to become the new owner of a Case neon sign. This one was double-sided and all original, right down to the crate it was still packed in. It measured 35 by 74 inches.
Proudly claiming that Oliver was the “finest in farm machinery”, a neon sign standing an impres-sive 86 inches tall, spread out for a width of 45 inches. This working, neon sign was all origi-nal. It was double-sided and sold for $13,250.
A majestic eagle has long been the recognized symbol of Case. One was standing proudly with its white head turned to the side and the brown feathers laying smoothly at rest. The globe it was standing on was sport-ing a red “Case” embla-zoned on it. In order to become the new owner of this heavy piece, you needed to be the bidder with the price of $17,000.
A Pontiac, double-sid-ed neon sign was in working condition. This porcelain sign was 6 feet
long and 4 feet tall. This one was a rare one and drove the bidding all the way to $35,000. It sim-ply said “Pontiac” and had the Indian head logo which appeared to be flying along some blue neon lights. A Gleaner Baldwin combine sign was double-sided. This neon porcelain sign was in working condition. It measure 40 by 27 inches and sold for $13,000.
Selling for just $500 more than the Gleaner Baldwin sign was a John Deere sign. This one measured 75 by 37 inch-es. It was a double-sided sign and was porcelain. The neon lights glowed beautifully in the expect-ed green color when the hammer marked it sold for $13,500.
There was one pedal car that really drove the bidding up. It was a Caterpillar D-4 crawler. This pedal tractor was in excellent condition and was all original. The brilliant yellow made it stand out as the price kept rising. The final bid price on this toy was an impressive $10,500.
A scuffed up Massey Harris 44, small pedal tractor was in original condition. It had lots of paint wear and the tires were beginning to show signs of rust. It just looked like it had been well-ridden and if you closed your eyes, you could actually picture some happy little boy, busy “farming” his own piece of land. The final sale price on this one was $4,000. A bright red Cushman scooter would run and drive. It had a Briggs and Stratton motor and was an elec-tric start. With no title, it sold for $2,000.
A white pedal air-plane had wings painted black, which really made them stand out. It was all original and had been restored. The bright red wheels were ready to taxi down the runway as this Steelcraft piece flew off with a sale price of
$1,750. Selling toys and liter-
ature took an entire day. A Claas Challenger #45 toy was new in the box. To take home this piece of a childhood memory, cost $800. A small trac-tor toy looked pretty impressive with its three blower motors clearly visible. Painted an eye-catching red, this was a replica of the 1995 official National Tractor pulling championship. It sold for $1,300. A Steiger Tiger special edition, made in the 1/8 scale, was painted an olive green. This one was in mint condition and sold for $700.
A John Deere 8020 sales brochure kept the bidders going until the hammer fell at a bid of $650. Going for the same money was a John Deere/Wagner WA-17/WA-14 sales brochure. A John Deere sales manu-al from a 1020-8020 with standard and hi-crop information sold for $500. This agricul-tural sales manual still had lots of good refer-ence information. A John Deere 8010 diesel manual from 1961 sold for the respectable bid of $475.
An unusual collectible area is watch fobs and pins. A Jerry Boy hand car engines watch fob was made in Waterloo. This piece brought a bid of $600. A watch fob that was mother of pearl and a John Deere cellu-loid pin with a small crack drummed up some interest. The pair sold for the bid price of $500. A Waterloo Boy gas engine stick pin brought a bid of $450 while an Avery under motor stick pin along with an Avery under motor clip-on badge sold for $425.
For more information call (877) 915-4440.

New York World’s Fair: It’s a small world after all By Barbara Miller Beem
From April to October in 1964, and then again in 1965, millions of people passed through turnstiles, seeking diversion at a 646-acre attraction in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park. It was a pivotal time in American history, with the assassination of a president still
fresh, but with the Summer of Love not yet a California dream. Optimistic throngs paid a few dollars each (one buck for kids) for the privilege to explore 140 pavilions, dine at 110 restaurants, and celebrate “man’s achievements on a shrinking globe in an expanding universe.” Standing as a constant
reminder of the theme of “Peace Through U n d e r s t a n d i n g ” was an imposing 12-story sculpture, the Unisphere. Visitors toured and gawked, ate and drank. And they bought souvenirs.
More than 50 years after its opening on April 22, 1964, the New York World’s Fair continues to evoke
n o s t a l g i c
memories for those who attended. And for them and for others, a glimpse into this mid-century cultural exposition is still possible, thanks to a plethora of surviving Fair-related items.
Decades earlier, this tract of land in the borough of Queens was the inspiration for F. Scott Fitzgerald’s “Valley of Ashes” in The Great Gatsby. In 1939 and 1940, it played host to the first New York World’s Fair, themed “Dawn of a New Day.” Remembering that Fair, and hoping to recapture feelings of goodwill, a group of
businessmen turned their dream into a
reality, creating a new Fair for
a new time. From the
beginning, this Fair was
plagued with a series of problems,
culminating in financial failure. But for those in attendance, the New York World’s Fair of 1964/1965 was a never-to-be-forgotten experience.
A robust advertising campaign encouraged
daytrippers and return visitors alike. They arrived by car or took advantage of special bus trips or train excursions. New York City subway cars, painted the Fair’s official colors of turquoise and orange, linked Times Square to the Fair.
To be sure, transportation was an important theme of the Fair. Not only was James Bond’s Aston Martin (from the motion picture Goldfinger) on exhibit, but there was the
opportunity to hitch a ride on the Monorail, check out NASA rockets, or view the movie To The Moon and Beyond, screened in, no less, the “Moon Dome.” Whereas many car enthusiasts fell in love at first sight with the “Mustang,” the Ford Rotunda also featured a ride in engineless Fords, propelled on a conveyor belt, to trace the history of the world, from dinosaurs to spacemen. Not to be outdone, General Motors countered with “Futurama,” which

World's FairFrom Page 6From Page 6
promised visitors “a foretaste of tomorrow” by showcasing “man’s abiding determination to make a better life for all.” As the souvenir brochure proclaimed, “If you’ve only seen it once, you haven’t seen it all.”
Theirs was not the only commercial head-to-head competition. Coca-Cola entertained guests with what they billed as the “musical voice” of the Fair, a 610-bell “Caril lon Americana.” But visi-tors to Pepsi-Cola left the “happiest cruise that ever sailed” sing-ing, for the first time (but not the last), “It’s a Small World.”
To be sure, there was something for every-one. The State of Illinois Pavilion show-cased “Great Moments” with a larger-than-life Abraham Lincoln, and Michelangelo’s Pietà could be viewed from a moving sidewalk at the Vatican Pavil ion. Culinarily, Belgian waffles, served at the Belg ian Vi l lage , became a popular treat, and for techies, the Picturephone was just a hint of what was to come.
For Jimmie Bucci, memories of one 1964 summer day live on, as three generations (including his one-year-old sister) made the 45-minute car trip from Sleepy Hollow to New York City. “We did the whole fair. It was so exciting,” he recalled. The Unisphere was “an incredible sight to behold,” and seeing it today contin-ues to “evoke a lot of memories.” One thing that stands out in his mind is the fact that,
in addition to a gift shop at most attrac-tions, there were also standalone shops. His family capped off their day with a German dinner.
About 10 years ago, Bucci, president of the Vintage Tablecloth Lovers Club, bought a souvenir tablecloth from the Fair, and that one purchase triggered yet another collection for the Massachusetts resident. To be sure, there was a wide array of commemorative and promotional items pro-duced, as well as sou-venirs, and many, but not all of them, were sold at the Fair. For instance, over the years, Bucci has filled in a set of iced tea glasses that were origi-nally premiums dis-tributed with the pur-chase of Mobil gasoline.
Among the souvenirs for sale on today’s mar-ket are scarves and ties (Bucci’s grandfather bought one at the Fair), and aprons, hankies, and towels, as well as salt-and-pepper shak-ers, plates, serving trays, and coasters. Jigsaw puzzles, card games, and books are also collectible, as are brochures, menus, and ticket stubs (individual attractions might require an additional admission of a quarter or less). Specially pro-duced jewelry included
charms, necklaces, ear-rings, and tie bar and cufflink sets.
C o m m e m o r a t i v e license plates are among the most expen-sive of Fair memorabil-ia, and original sign-posts might sell for “well over $1,000.” But postcards, including foldout books, can be purchased for less than a dollar and are rela-tively easy to find. A number of items, including paper dolls, featured two children named Peter and Wendy: Bucci mused that the World’s Fair was their own version of Never Never Land. For his part, replacing what he bought at the Fair as a child has proven to be challeng-ing. Original, not reproduced, t-shirts are nearly impossible to find, and desktop flip calendars like the one he took home 56 years ago are pricey. But he remains opti-mistic.
Bucci concluded that he can’t imagine there could ever be another World’s Fair quite like that one. Although a financial failure for its o r g a n i z e r s , f o r Fairgoers, spending a day where “the Jetsons meet Disneyland” was priceless. And its infec-tious spirit of optimism continues to inspire collectors today.

By Larry LeMasters
Jacobus Johannes Josephus Verzuu (1901 – 1971) was a construction supervisor in Utrecht, the smallest of the 12 Dutch provinc-
es, when he was selected to supervise the ADO wooden toy workshops at Berg en Bosch Sanitarium in Apeldoorn. Verzuu became
famous under the name Ko Verzuu as the leader of the ADO workshops, which employed tuberculosis sanitarium patients, and his
toys, known as ADO Ko Verzuu, are highly collectible today.
Ko Verzuu designed toy trucks, cars, building blocks, doll furniture, and games that were hand-made by his team at ADO.
Verzuu famously tested each of his toys on his own children, guaranteeing the quality, durability, and playability of each
and every toy,
As a construction supervisor, Verzuu studied art and architecture, developing a strong relationship with abstract
design and, as a student, immersing himself in the bright colors of the 1920s art group De Stijl (“The Style”). Verzuu
incorporated “the Style” into his toy designs, giving each toy an abstract, yet modern appearance. He continued to
employ his love of abstract design in his toys until his death.
De Stijl, also known as Neoplasticism, was a Dutch art movement that developed after World War I that
advocated pure abstraction and reduction in form and color, using a simplified pallet of black, white, red, blue,
and yellow. Verzuu’s dollhouse and toy truck designs were strongly influenced by Gerrit Rietveld, a De
Stijl artist who specialized in clean lines and primary colors.
Verzuu toy trucks are, therefore, curiously avant-garde or experimentally unorthodox in style when
compared to similar toys built in the Netherlands in the first half of the 20th century. In 2012, the
Museum of Modern Art in New York City exhibited Verzuu toys in its iconic show “the Century of
the Child: Growing by Design, 1900 – 2000.” Also in 2012, the CODA Museum (in Aperldoorn,
Netherlands), considered the art and jewelry museum of the Netherlands, dedicated an exhibition—
Ado Speelgoed spelt goed—to Verzuu toy designs where museum visitors were given the opportuni-
ty to assemble Verzuu trucks and other toys themselves in a rebuilt or simulated Ado workshop,

PARMA, Ohio — Toys of Times Past has specialized in high quality antique and vin-
tage toys at auction for more than 20 years. The firm held its Online Only Spring Vintage
Toy Auction March 28. The auction house utilized LiveAuctioneers, Invaluable, and
AuctionZip for live bidding and also offered pre-bidding and absentee bidding resulting
in some wonderful vintage toys finding new homes.
On tap for this 2020 Spring edition was a great line-up of high quality tin windup
character toys in original boxes from various manu-
facturers including Linemar, Marx, Chein, Unique
Art, Linstrom, Chein and more. Another portion of the
auction offered the largest multi-generation
Greyhound Bus collection ever to be brought to auc-
tion. Toys of Time Past explained in their pre-sale press
material, the Greyhound Bus collection of Emery
Brunelle that was brought to auction dated back to
1928 when he became one of the first Greyhound Bus
drivers. The collecting was then carried on by his son,
the late John S. Brunelle. “John owned and operated

Auction attendee makes unusual find at Art Smith sale FREMONT, Mich. —
Art Smith loves auction folks. On June 20 he con-ducted an auction for a couple who were selling their home and moving off the farm. The auction included farm equipment as well as farm toys, guns and items from a saddle and tack shop.
Prior to the start of the auction a man Smith knew as a regular to his sales approached him and asked him to take a look at a military ammo box painted yellow which was located on a wagon full of miscellaneous items. It was also the wagon Smith was going
to start selling when the auction began.
Smith said he had noticed the box because it was painted yellow instead of green; but he had not opened it.
The auction attendee then brought the box to Smith opened it, reached inside and handed Smith
10 very neatly stacked $100 bills.
“I told him to follow me and we would find the seller and give it to him. The seller was astounded and thanked him profuse-ly,” Smith said. “I took him over the lunch truck and told the vendor to give him anything he
asked for and keep track of it and I’d settle up with them after the auction. At the end of the auction I went to the lunch truck and asked what I owed for the fellow’s lunch. He only had a doughnut and a cup of coffee.”
As for the ammo box, the auction patron who
alerted Smith to the money ended up buying it. “It is always nice to meet up with auction folks like this and the vast majority of auction goers are of the same cal-iber as this gentleman. It is a joy to work with hon-est people of good charac-ter,” Smith said.
Tri-State Market returns July 5LAWRENCEBURG,
Ind. — After canceling its first two shows due to stay-at-home orders, Indiana’s largest monthly antiques and vintage only market returns to the L a w r e n c e b u r g Fairgrounds on July 5 determined to sell in a safe, fun and open air environment!
The Tri-State Antique Market will feature new safety measures as well as a few new additions to enhance the shopping experience like a shaded “hang out” area and a retro photo booth camper with complimentary pho-tos.
Now in its 35th season the Tri-State Antique
Market has become a sea-sonal destination for col-lectors, repurposers, and DIY home decorators, and with an ever chang-ing line up of 200 plus vendors at each monthly market, there is always a lot to choose from. Furnishings, jewelry, early Americana, indus-trial salvage and pop cul-ture memorabilia will be on hand from a variety of time periods and price points.
The Lawrenceburg Fairgrounds is conve-niently located in south-east Indiana, approxi-mately one mile west of exit 16 off I-275 and min-utes from the Ohio and Kentucky borders. Full of
quaint, country charm complete with shaded groves and large open-air pavilions, the fiv- acre park also offers many modern amenities includ-ing paved walkways, con-temporary restrooms, free parking, and a vari-ety of food vendors at all four corners of the mid-way. Over half of the Market’s vendors display indoors or under cover, so the event is held “rain or shine.”
The show will also be held on Aug. 2, Sept 6, Oct. 4 and Nov. 1.
