Perfected on the Farm presents a charming look back at the development of the milking machine during first half of the twentieth century and its impact on farms and farmers. By delving deep into the collection of one of the country's foremost collectors of dairy ephemera, we've uncovered a wealth of images and text that show the transformation of the milker from a humble, hand-operated device to a technologically complex one that helped to feed America as it grew and changing in the post-World War II era. Anyone who has an appreciate of dairy farming- as it operates today or as it did in yesteryear- will appreciate this look back to a simpler time.
