International or McCormick

Generally if it was an industral it was always a International. If it was a standard/wheel type it was a McCormick or McCormick Deering through the letter series then was an International. The row crop tractors were Farmalls.

There are a few exceptions to all rules. For example, early Fairway tractors were McCormick Deerings. Later Fairway tractors were International. Is a Fairway tractor an industrial tractor or a wheel/standard tractor? Just to stir the question.

In 1968 the 656 was called International with the word Farmall in small print just above model number. Grill was also changed to match the rest of 56 series just introduced at that time.

I just looked at the 1968 buyers guide, and in that all tractors have the word International as the main label in the decal. The name Farmall appears in small print above the model number of Farmalls. The utilities and big standards don't appear to have anything printed above model number of decal. There is one exception in this buyers guide Farmall 140 remains as it was. I suspect 1967 was the last year the name McCormick appeared in those decals.

and possibly other Farmalls. Farmalls had two names. The standard and wheatland tractors usually only had one (and there's a difference between standards and wheatlands too). TracTractors were similar to Farmalls.

Looking at what you are saying my Super A, serial number 336977, making it a 1953 model. As I said I painted it about 15 years ago, put on new decals. I see these decals have McCormick Deering in amall rint under the word Farmall. This tractor needs painting again and again new decals. I gather that in your opinion Super A decals probably changed around 1950, thus the correct decals for my tractor should not have the word Deering in small print, but rather just McCormick?
