Description

Photograph of a tractor in use, [s.d.]. A man in coveralls sits on to puff the tractor controlling it with the levers in front of him. The man is apparently dragging a large cylinder which is linked to the back of the tractor. The tractor has left track marks on the smooth dirt with its tank-like wheels and a small pipe from its front side secretes puffs of smoke. A large factory stands behind the tractor on the left while a hill stands in the background on the left.
