What makes this little garden tractor so special? The Tiger Tractor was built in Keyser, West Virginia in a privately owned manufacturing plant which operated from 1947 until the early
1960’s when the company went bankrupt. Many different models were made, ranging from 4 1/2 HP to 9 1/2 HP. The earlier models were operated using a hand clutch, while later ones had a three-speed transmission and differential. The average Tiger was sold with five attachments, including snow plow, garden plows, discs, sickle bar, belly mower, and other pieces. According to one informant, who actually worked at the plant and painted the finished machine, the original colors were green and yellow with white letters.
