ASSEMBLY TEAM by Tom Clark

"In 1937, John Deere, a blacksmith, developed the world's first commercially successful, self-scouring steel plow, and in anticipation of its success, he even began a manufacturing operation to produce plows before receiving any orders. His prophetic wisdom is still seen today in the giant company that now offers all manner of agricultural and industrial equipment for homeowner and commercial use. To honor this company, its many employees, and its many product aficionados, David Merck and I have designed a gnome "assembly team" who are depicted busily assembling a gnome scale tractor. The "John Deere green" paint may still be a bit wet as the tractor receives the last of this signature color. Finance, accounting, sales, marketing, and production are all represented by the assembly team, and their dedication is testimony to their success in producing very high-quality equipment. The company over the years has lived up to the vow once spoken by John Deere himself: "I will never put my name on a plow that does not have in it the best that is in me.""
