Mace: I have two model numbers for you, McCormick Deering 10A or 10B. I have photos of both in front of me, and I can't see a whole lot of difference in either. Both were introduced in 1931 and both were available in 5, 6, 7 and 8 sizes. The B is shown with plain blades, and the notes say nothing about cut aways being an option. The A is shown with cut away and notes say, " the No, 10A shown here featured cut away blades for maximum penetration". I rather doubt cut away blades determine the model number.

I just went and got a magnifying glass the 10B uses a crank and screw to change angle of gangs. It would look to me as though your disk is a model 10A. Bear in mind, my reference is the book 150 Years of IH by CH Wendel. He does have a tendancy not to cover all, thus there could be another disk not shown. I doubt that in the case of disks, as there are numerous other disks shown, plus the 10A and 10B were built from 1931 until 1960. He seems to show two larger size disks running from roughly 1930 through to 1960, plus the introduction of wheel controlled disks in 1961.
