"My Model Farm" International Harvester 1911

All the way back in 1911, International Harvester decided that it ought to get into the motion picture business. What followed was an era that lasted for decades where International Harvester was intent on staying on the cutting edge of marketing, creating its own motion-picture company to promote its machines.

According to Navistar Historian Tom Clark, the first commercial film by International Harvester in 1911 was a silent film called "Back To The Old Farm" but this is not that film since it has sound. It had to have been made much later.

This film is from 1945 according to some archives. Also it can't be from 1911 as the sound recording company used wasn't founded until 1928.

Sound could have been added later, but the automobiles are from the mid twenties to late twenties.
