Henry Ford was not only honored by ordinary citizens, he was also recognized by his peers, evidenced by this plaque presented by Harry Ferguson, who references in the inscription what has become known as the famous Handshake Agreement. This alliance marked the beginning of a partnership between the two manufacturers, resulting in the production of Ford-Ferguson tractors commencing in 1939.
