Painted in bright green with red wheels and trim, this traction engine stands out from the mostly dark, workmanlike machines typical of its era. Steam traction engines like this one were built to haul heavy loads and drive farm machinery such as threshers, and their owners often decorated them with bold colors as a point of pride. Set on open grass, the engine shows how these machines were presented as much as they were used, and it offers a useful glimpse of early mechanized farm life.
