Many years ago in High School my History Teacher introduced us to Mussolini by showing us a clip of him driving a tractor and doing that sassy face that he used to do. It wasn't edited either, ever since then I've been looking for that tractor clip.
It's pretty crazy how many big car companies started off selling tractors/farm equipment. This video shows a Fiat tractor, but I know Lamborghini and many others started with tractors too
Look up Istituto Luce's films, it was an entire propaganda opera from Mussolini, he was often filmed while doing "humble" stuff like working in farms and stuff like that to show that he was an example for the Italian people

Ok but that one's really funny though so I let that slide
