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. The exposition was held at Burnham Park between October 8 and November 2.
One of the exhibits on display was the millionth FARMALL tractor, a model M. Unfortunately, there were no details as to when it actually came off the production line. Thought this may be of interest with respect to all the production figures being put forward.
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.
