Argyle (WIFR) -- The Paulson Agricultural Museum of Argyle houses hundreds of cast iron implement seats, and over 50 antique tractors, many which are still running. The exciting part is most of these items originated in rockford. Just when you think it cant get any better, admission to the museum is free, although donations are accepted.
"I've driven to alot of auctions, a lot of miles from home sometimes. So, I don't know I just got the bug I guess and dont know enough to quit." says Warren Paulson, benefactor of the museum.
"There's probably got to be at least 500 - 700 individual items here. We're also going to have a stage coach with some ponies pulling it and it will be fun for the kids too." say Steve Atterbury, president of the museum.
"Be sure and come out, you're missing an awful lot if you don't come out. Really interesting, really interesting." says Walter and Darlene Cobert of Loves Park, who are friends of the Paulson Family.
The building is heated and open year round, which is perfect for birthday, weddings, or even an auction.
