National Farm Toy Show

November 6, 7 & 8, 2009 marks this year's show dates. The farm toy hobby got a jump start in 1978 when Claire and Cathy Scheibe, publishers of the popular Toy Farmer magazine published in LaMoure, N.D., held their first National Farm Toy Show in Dyersville, Iowa.

The show, lovingly labeled as "The Grandaddy of 'Em All," attracted 15,000 people this year and continues to be held there each year.
