I have a copy of "International Harvester World" published December 1947 which was a special issue covering the exposition held to celebrate Harvesters 100years in Chicago - 1847 to 1947.

Slightly off the subject, there was also on display what the caption of the photo described as being "the first successful mechanical cotton picker" and was a principal attraction. Sid.
