I want to thank: rusted, robgIN and Tom Fleming for the answers to my question. It looks like the error is my dads memory. If this was a John Deere I would have know the answer. My grandfather traded 2 draft mares and a colt for a trade in on a 1941 John Deere B and since then my dad and I have only had John Deere on our farms except for our wives - "And They were the Case". I tell this with permission from my wife. But when it comes to other brands of tractors my knowledge is limited.
I have just sent out a letter to my family to see if they want to do the same thing with the combines my family has owned. I have had several family members ask me if we could do it so I'm asking the rest of the family if they would be willing to do the research. Then I got to thinking that since the combines added corn heads in the late 50' and early 60's that we should also include the corn pickers too. But the corn pickers should be the easiest to do because we picked corn by hand until 1944. That year my grandfather and 4 of his sons who were farming on their own applied for a permit to buy a corn picker that was rationed during the war. Since there was 5 farmer asking for one picker they were given a permit for a 2 Row Mounted Allis Chalmers Corn Picker. Then they also bought a 2 Row Pull-type Oliver Corn Picker on the Black Market for around $100 to $150 more than list price. Up until almost 1950 the 6 sons worked together every year to pick corn just using those 2 corn pickers.

How did I get this way? I came from the suburbs and own a small horse farm in rural Loudoun County, Virginia. You can call me a "weekend farmer." The local farmers do. Does it bother me? No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
