[Hall Of Fame Banner]

The EDGE&TA Hall of Fame was established in 1998 in the interest of honoring those who have made significant contributions to the collection, preservation, and exhibition of antique tractors, engines, and equipment. 

Every EDGE&TA member is eligible for this award.  Posthumous submissions will be accepted with past EDGE&TA membership.

 

Each year the inductees to the Hall of Fame will receive their award in the form of a plaque with their name on it.  The announcement of the year’s inductees will be made at the National business meeting unless other arrangements are made. This award will be presented to them at the National or Regional Show of their choice.  A stand-in can accept the award if the inductee is unable to attend.  Their name will then be put on the large Hall of Fame plaque that EDGE&TA keeps along with the previous years inductees.  Their names along with their applications will then be put on our web site for all to view.

 

The Hall of Fame chairman will chose three anonymous judges that have no affiliation with the nominees.  The nominee must receive two votes from the judges to be inducted into the Hall of Fame.  In an effort to have all applications judged equally, the following application guideline must be followed.
