Even though my father lived in the past, he never talked about it. Everything was a secret. So I made assumptions based on the few things I observed. Grandfather was all JD(Waterloo Boy, D,A,AR,B, etc.) There were about 6 dealers close enough to do business with, one was family. About 1950, he and Dad bought a brand new AC WD wide front.

My cousin (20 years my senior) still has the WD. He was present for delivery and payment. JD and IH were the leaders around here. There were a fair amount of AC and Oliver. Not much else. There was one MM dealer near town, likewise a Case dealer, but I never saw any MM tractors around. Once in a while an MF, Case, and of course a few old 8N's and such. Most anything was available, so I'm thinking it was a matter of choice.
