Shot on 8mm film in 1969, this vintage home movie captures a steam-powered tractor at a rural fair in Jordan, Minnesota. The large, black steam tractor with a prominent circular boiler and wide wheels is driven through a grassy field, carrying passengers under a simple canopy. A crowd of onlookers in 1960s casual attire watches from the sidelines, with another red tractor visible in the background. The footage exhibits classic Super 8 film grain and color saturation, offering authentic archival footage of mid-century agricultural machinery and community events.
