What surprises me, is that anyone would drive out into such a tall field with a car with its exhaust down low. The likelihood of starting a fire they could not stop is simply too risky. The big tractors usually sent the exhaust UP for that reason. And, the TT was driven in on the cut area of the field. Still some risk, but not nearly so much.

I like this photo!

Anyone know the story of where this was taken?

Those Gleaners are mounted on Fordson tractors. I saw one many years ago at Harold Warp's Pioneer Village, in Minden Nebraska.
