Yes in in 1902 McCormick, Deering and Milwaukee Harvester Companies, Piano Mfg. Co., and Warder, Bushnell.& Glessner (Champion harvesters) merged to become International Harvester Company. In 1923 (as a result of the antitrust action) the new grain binder - called the McCormick-Deering was introduced, only after this intro did all of IHC's other farm implements follow suit. What I wonder is; Did IHC play name games and use different colors in the U.S. For example my FIL has two No.8's that he bought new and remembers them as... #1. Black hitch, back of moldboards blue, white wheels and the rest red. #2 with Hyd lift. Wheels red, hitch black and the color blue in the normal places...but red wheels? And about the No.16 plow I have heard the wheels were all white, fronts white and rear blue and red front and back. I do remember seeing one with the blue rear wheel...dealer gimick?
