Old Mccormick Tractor
Artist
Susan Buscho
Medium
Painting - Watercolor Painting
Description
I found this old McCormick tractor sitting in the weeds on a farmers field near Kettle River, Minnesota. It definitely had an aged look to it and I thought it would be a good item to incorporate into a watercolor painting. Notice the tree growing out of the back metal wheels, the fine patina which age has given to the tractor, and the rust which had overtaken so much of it.
...from the McCormick website: ...a merger among the five largest companies was brokered by the J.P. Morgan banking firm. The McCormick, Deering and Milwaukee Harvester companies, Piano Mfg. Co., and Warder, Bushnell & Glessner (Champion harvesters) merged to become the mighty International Harvester Co.
For many years after the merger, IHC sold two parallel lines of equipment, one named McCormick and one named Deering, each slightly different from the other, but wearing the IHC logo. This was deemed necessary since each line had its loyal customers, and there was usually both a McCormick and a Deering dealer in every farm community".
