In 1997, collectors around the world gathered to celebrate
the 150th Anniversary of Massey-Harris-Ferguson. Many of those who
gathered at the various anniversary events wanted to see a continuation of
the friendships and fellowship established during these exciting
celebrations. It was decided to form a Canadian-based club, with a purpose
of encouraging the preservation of the Massey legacy. Other tractors also
of interest to our members are Wallis and Verity.
The membership fee is $25 per
year. Members receive a quarterly newsletter which
publishes the minutes of each general meeting, announcement of the date
and location of the next meeting, articles submitted by members about
Massey and related equipment, and notices of items for sale or
wanted.

WEBMASTER
Here is a picture of our MH 55 gas tractor. This is very similar to the one my Dad had when I was about 10 or 11 years old except his was a western version.
My dad had bought some land across the road from our home farm and it was full of willows and shrubs. He would hook a chain to the willow and it was my job to pull it out with the Massey. Then I would back the tractor up and pull out another. While doing this I had to sit on the front edge of the seat since I could not reach the clutch otherwise.
I hope you enjoy our website and I welcome comments, corrections, or submissions which can be sent to me by clicking on webmaster@masseycollectors.ca
