A close look at the badge on the grille of a rusted blue Fordson Major Diesel tractor sets this picture apart from the rest of the tractor board. The Fordson Major was built by Ford's British operation, first appearing in 1945 and later producing a diesel model that became a common sight on farms in Britain, Ireland and across the Commonwealth. Its blue paint and bold lettering were familiar to generations of farmers, and the weathered finish here shows how long these machines kept working after they were retired from the field. The close framing turns a piece of routine farm hardware into a record of postwar mechanization.
