The W-30 is actually a McCormick-Deering tractor made from 1931 to 1939 (standard-tread tractor).
A closely related model is the Farmall F-30 also made from 1931 to 1939(row-crop tractor)..
Both made by International Harvester.
Both with the 283 cubic inch engine.
all of this info is from TractorData.com

They were all McCormick Deering tractors, The Farmall and it's later F series 12.20,30 were McCormick Deering Farmalls. The Farmall designated the Row Crop tractors.

I have one of the old girls in my shop that I have had for 50 years.

my Dad had one also. They are not known as Farmalls though as that refers to the row crop IHC line. McCormick Deering is correct for W30s.
Not real sure but I would say they were made in the 1930s - Dad's was a 1937 and my guess is they ended before the 1939 introduction of the M, H, W4, W6, W9 and that series.
