RCAGE&TS 14: Lewis Garrison aboard Plymouth (OH) Silver King 2010-06-19 - Photo by Ed Waggener. Clay Ridge, KY, KY 61 between Columbia and Greensburg, KY Lewis Garrison shows off one of his two biggest additions to the annual Russell Creek Antique Gas Engine & Tractor Show, which gets underway this morning at 10amCT, Saturday, June 19, 2010. The tractor is a Silver King, a later name for a line of tractors built in Plymouth, OH, and previously called "Plymouth." The tractor was manufactured by Fate-Root-Heath Co. This beauty is, according to the yellow placard on the front of the grill, "a 1938 Silver King, serial number 3533, first Plymouth made in 1934 (325 built). 10" drawbar, 20 HP Hercules 1XA Engine. In 1935, Plymouth was renamed Silver King." The line was last manufactured 54 years ago, in 1956. Tractors will arrive from several states today, adding to the few Garrison himself has on display, a mere 95. Some of the tractors will be driven to the site, but many will arrive aboard elegantly adapted tractor carriers, with as many as four pieces of the farm equipment onboard.
