Russian Wheel-type tractors

Russia Post released a set of 4 stamps on the wheel-type tractors depicting Karlik, STZ 15/30, Vladimirets T-25A, and Kirovets K-7M on 15th July 2022.

A wheeled tractor is a self-propelled vehicle on wheels intended for pulling and activation of various vehicles and tools. Tractors are used in agriculture, construction works, and in industry. The first steam-powered wheeled tractor was manufactured in 1832-1837 by John Heathcoat in England. The first wheeled tractor in Russia was assembled by Yakov Mamin in 1910, but mass production was launched in 1922-1924.
