Description

Tractors have supported out nation and revolutionized farming across the world, and these beautiful, hand-created illustrations honour the history of this important piece of machinery. Amongst the images you’ll discover the iconic Fordson Model N (top centre), which helped turn thousands of acres over to food production during the 1940s, and was later replaced by the E27N (main central image). There’s also the Ferguson TE20 (top left), famed for its hydraulic three-point hitch system which set the international standard for tractors that has remained to this day. William Morris (famous for Morris cars) introduced the Nuffield Universal at the 1948 Smithfield Agricultural Show, and the M3 version (top right) was used for row crop work and is shown here with a front mounted coverer.
