In 1953, Ford made every postwar farmer’s dream come true
with the ultimate tractor–an American original, straight from our
nation’s heartland–updated with all of the technical
improvements of a new and optimistic era. Now, in cooperation with
Ford Motor Company, Franklin Mint Precision Models captures the
nostalgia with a 1:12 scale model of the 1953 Ford Jubilee
Tractor.
Every detail of the original is carefully recreated, from the
fully-detailed engine compartment, to the steering and road wheels
that actually turn, to the operable brakes and clutch pedals.
Crafted of more than 150 individual parts and carefully painted red
and gray, the tractor even bears the medallion inscribed
‘Golden Jubilee Model 1903-1953,’ which Ford used that year
in celebration of its own 50th anniversary.
The 1953 Ford Jubilee Tractor is available exclusively from The
Franklin Mint for a retail price of $135. For customer information,
phone 1-800-THE-MINT or visit the Franklin Mint Store near you.
