Posted on July 11, 2009 by archiearchive FCD

One man’s garbage is another man’s antique.

This collection of old farm machinery is destined to be a part of a museum in Western Australia.

    How true. We have a farm machinery museum here and I found it very interesting when we went to see it. A group of older men meet regularly to restore some of it which has a twofold purpose I’m sure. :)

    I hope they look after it properly. My father donated old machinery that had been kept under cover and it got parked outside and just rotted. :-( Hopefully the museums have learnt a thing or two since then…

    I like the shot. The old farm equipment is aesthetically pleasing to me.

    Excellent shot. Sometimes “garbage” can be quite attractive.

    Good one, Archie! You’re right, though. This might have been taken, at one time, as an unsightly heap of rusted machinery. Now they’re historical artifacts.
