What is IH?
International Harvester Company (IHC or IH; now Navistar International Corporation) was an agricultural machinery, construction equipment, vehicle, commercial truck, and household and commercial products manufacturer. In 1902, J.P. Morgan purchased the McCormick Harvesting Machine Company and Deering Harvester Company, along with three smaller agricultural equipment firms: Milwaukee; Plano; and Warder, Bushnell, and Glessner (manufacturers of Champion brand). J P Morgan thus formed International Harvester. International Harvester sold off the Ag division in 1985 and later renamed the company. Case IH was formed when the Agricultural Division merged with J.I. Case.
