Case Tractors - Auction

[Dutch]

Stopped by an old farm in Santa Claus Indiana and found that there will be an auction May 17th - at least that is what an elderly lady told me.
With the owner's permission I wandered around looking for perhaps an old corn sheller or cider press but found that this gentleman must have had twenty or thirty [or more] what appeared to be CASE tractors. I am not a tractor person but there are perhaps five or six structures just crammed with Case tractors. Very muddy and most of the stuff is still jammed in barns and being pulled out by the people doing the organizing. I cannot find out anything on the loal auctioneer websites. This has got to be a monster opportunity for any of you CASE people! There were even two large STEAM tractors!

[Glenn Gieszler]

RE: Steam Engines
I do remember that one said ......... Indiana and the other was so buried I could not even get in to see it.
Maybe the auctioneer site will list things more accurately.

The steam engines are Keck Gonnerman, and they WILL NOT be sold. Most of this equipment is the life long collection of the Ketzel family of Santa Claus.
They farmed with Case and also collected several Case tractors and equipment along the way.
Sorry Colin.

Any cross motors in there? My Dad has been looking for local ones for years.
