I decided to bring a discussion from the Oliver board over to the main page and throw in the MH angle to boot. They were discussing production tallies and in particular Farmall M and Oliver 70 relative to over all Oliver production. Anyhow, just looking through Tractor Data briefly shows that 84,000 Massey Harris 44 tractors were built which surprised me. I just did not think that they were that widely sold but then a person has to take into account Canada and the likely importation limits of US brands. If I remember the book John Deere's Company correctly it did talk about Deere's difficulty in entering the Canadian market for tractors and the decision to manufacture in Welland, Ontario. I think some JD M tractors were built there for a brief time but I don't know how much was made there and how much was shipped but then assembled at Welland. IH was still the export leader in terms of US made tractors going north or across the ocean.
