The year 1919 will be one of achievement,” declared the May 1, 1919, Chilton Tractor Journal. “It marks a milestone on the road of progress of the tractor industry. The production figures show that close to 300,000 tractors will be built. This means that the tractor industry will, in all probability, pass the truck industry, for there is every reason to believe that this year, for the first time, more tractors than trucks will be manufactured.”

The 1920s! Just a mention of that decade might call to mind the Roaring Twenties, the Jazz Age, the Era of Ballyhoo, or the Decade of Wonderful Nonsense. Iconic chapters included the flappers doing the Charleston, gangsters shooting their rivals in a battle to sell booze to a thirsty public that refused to accept prohibition, and aristocratic movie stars living the lush life in Beverly Hills. It was a time of increasing prosperity and greater leisure time that contributed to a near decade-long binge that ended with the 1929 stock market crash and the hangover of the Great Depression.
