Thanks for the reply. I also googled Case A-6 combine and found illustrations that resembled the old case. I would guess the combine was a mid to late 30s model. I think Dad bought it in the Texas mid-coastal region. Rice was switching from threshing machines to pull type combines in 1944.. I was six at the time and remember that they sacked the rice and hauled it to the warehouse. Rice dryers were being built, but I don't know if they were operational in 1944. In 1945, Dad sacked the rice, hauled it out of the field and dumped the sacks in the grain bed of the trucks. The following year, he was able to obtain a MH 21 and used the auger wagon to get it out of the field. The pictures look similar to the old case. I didn't remember the engine being located on top until I saw the pictures. I remember some farmers having the larger pull types with the tall grain bins that unloaded by gravity, I-H and MMs, as I remember. I don't remember seeing a SP before 1946, though I heard Dad talking about trying to find one.
