Daily LIFT #1513


The Uzbek SSR's first team of tractor drivers, 1925 -- Daily LIFT #1513


"This photo headlined "From Wooden Plough to Tractor" was published on February 15, 7925, in the newspaper Pravda Vostoka. It is now kept in the archives of the Museum of the Peoples of Uzbekistan. In those years many news reports began with the word "first": the first hospital, the first power station, the first university. This photo could be described as "the first step to comprehensive mechanization, as it shows the Republic's first group of tractor drivers." -- Soviet Press, December 1985
