Tractor and Trailer Gift Set

There is a sort of holy trinity of classic Corgi gift sets, the car transporter and cars, the Land-Rover & horse box and the tractor and trailer, they are continually renewed and consistently offered right through the heyday of the brand. Here we have the 1968 offering of the tractor and trailer with the Massey Ferguson 165 released by MF in 1964 and by Corgi in 1965 and the latest version of the farm trailer. Together it makes a handsome set with stacks of play value.

This tractor is made more fun by the addition of a clicker in the front axle which is supposed to mimic the diesel engine. The set was deleted in 1972.

The models which made up the Tractor and Trailer Gift Set - GS9 were:

•  69 Massey Ferguson 165 Tractor Shovel

•  62 Farm tipper trailer

•  Driver figure

This set has been assembled using models from my collection
