The late 1940s were a culturally distinct time in the history of the United States, a brief period of relative peace and increasing fortunes immediately after the end of World War II but before the beginning of the preoccupations of the 1950s.  The same year our Farmall tractors were being built, a young Quaker from Pennsylvania was writing a book that he based on his experiences on an island in the South Pacific.

LoewyLocomotive

Raymond Loewy, an American industrial designer who was born in France, helped design the streamlined styling of our 1940s International Harvester tractors and equipment.  Streamline Moderne was a style of design that became popular in the early to middle years of the 20th century.  Loewy’s pod-shaped, streamlined pencil sharpener, which the US Postal Service immortalized on a stamp, bears a familial styling similarity to our International tractors, as does this steam locomotive, which Loewy designed for the Pennsylvania Railroad.
