Rare Collection of Silver King Tractors TRACTORS Antiques 18-2-21 "I started collecting Silver King tractors several years ago. My first one was a 1936 3-wheeler that was all in pieces and took many months to restore," says Harry Richard, Sr., Raymond, N.H., who has one of the most unusual tractor collections in the country-Silver King tractors were manufactured in Plymouth, Ohio, by Fate-Root-Heath Co. until the 1950's when they were bought out by Mountain State Fabricating Co., of West Virginia.
"I now have 16 Silver Kings built from 1934 to 1941 and I'm still looking for more. Fourteen of the 16 tractors are running but not all have been restored," says Richard.
One rare tractor that he had always wanted but couldn't find was a "Plymouth" which was the first tractor in the Silver King line. "They're the rarest since only 214 were built from 1932 to 1933. I finally found one and have now restored it to like-new condition."
