Item Description:
Vintage black & white photographic reprint depicting an early farm and plantation scene at McDonalds Mill, Virginia, identified on the reverse as:
“Scene on Plantation
McDonalds Mill, Virginia
about 1918”
The image shows an early tractor with steel wheels alongside a horse-drawn wagon and farm workers in a rural Appalachian setting. Strong Americana and agricultural history appeal with excellent visual composition.
This appears to be a later Kodak paper reprint made from an earlier circa-1918 image, likely produced around the 1950s–1960s based on the photographic paper stock.
Excellent crossover appeal for:
• Early tractor collectors
• Farm machinery collectors
• Virginia history collectors
• Appalachian photography collectors
• Rural Americana collectors
• Agricultural history displays
