He was a journeyman molder at a Dubuque firm that was temporarily idled by a strike. With a wife and five sons to support, he started taking defective aluminum aircraft pistons and melting them down. He poured this aluminum into sand molds, and started making toy tractors. By 1946, the basement wasn't big enough, so the business moved to a 1,040 square foot building in Dubuque and in 1947, Ertl was incorporated and moved into a larger 11,000 square foot building. In 1959, Ertl built a larger facility in Dyersville, IA and moved all production there.  By 1980, Ertl was producing close to one million die-cast farm equipment items per year. In the last 15 years, Ertl-now owned by TOMY, Inc. - has produced over 100 million tractors and implements to delight kids and collectors throughout the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasures approximately: 7\" x 3\" x 3.5\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAge grade: 14+.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDie-Cast Replica.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade of some plastic parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a Licensed John Deere Product.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John Deere","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41884660367434,"sku":"LP86731","price":89.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0871\/0794\/files\/lp86731-15.jpg?v=1738111972","url":"https:\/\/agnlawn.com\/products\/1-32-john-deere-8020-80th-anniversary-prestige-collection-tractor-toy-lp86731","provider":"AGNLAWN.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
