Red
Farmall Tractors Red Farmall Tractors art print is from an original watercolor painting by the Artist, William B. MacGregor Jr., who is known in the New England area as the Junkyard Artist.
Farmall is a brand name for tractors manufactured by International Harvestor (IH), Farmall was a prominent brand in the 20th-century and originated as row-crop tractors. During the decades of Farmall production (1920s to 1980s), most Farmalls were built for row-crop work, but many orchard, fairway, and other variants were also built. Most Farmalls were all-purpose tractors that were affordable for small to medium-sized farms. Farmall
tractors were painted a deep blue-grey until mid-1936. The wheels
were most often red. Then a decision was made to change the entire
tractor (frame, sheet metal, engine, and wheels) to a new color,
'Farmall Red'. That way a farmer could look out across the fields
and see his neighbor's tractor from a great distance and know what
make it was.
