Frick Eclipse Steam Tractor

 

There's a roadside farmers market on Route 751 in Apex, NC called Jean's Neighborhood Market. There's a dozen or more antique cars, tractors, and farm equipment parked around it. I drew one of the tractors about two years ago, and on a recent trip did another. Both were made by Frick & Co. of Waynesboro, PA. The woman inside the store told me that it was from 1930, but a Google search shows advertisements for the same machine from the late 1870s.
