Set against a grassy field, this Red McCormick Standard tractor stands out from the broader run of farm-equipment pictures on the board because its subject is a specific machine rather than a working scene. The McCormick Standard was a small, low-slung tractor built by International Harvester in the 1920s and 1930s, sold to smaller farms that could not afford the larger models. Its red paint and open frame make it an easy machine to recognize, and it marks the early shift from horse-drawn work to gasoline power on American farms.
