Question on '57 Lo-Boy Stainless Emblems

A fellow close by called and asked what were the correct hood stainless emblems for a '57 Lo-Boy. If memory serves me correct, which is not the case all to often, there was a change from Farmall to International somewhere near that time. Anyway, he needs to know what the correct emblems are. He and I both did searches on the internet and I on the forum, we did not come up with a definitive answer. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Bill, all the Loboys had International emblems and the FCubs had Farmall emblems in that era. The Cub also had a smaller "McCormick " emblem above the Farmall emblem while the Loboy left those two holes open.

Bill,
Barnyard is correct. Here are some photos of the 1957 International Cub LoBoy that I owned for a short time.
Before:
After: (sold the tractor and the new owner sent me this photo after restoring)

Bill, just to add to what has already been said, Tom and Lynn have an excellent summary of these types of details here:

I bought a set of the stainless International cub emblems from Steiner's and they were excellent.

I have a 57 low-boy and its described correctly....I always wondered what those 2 holes were for...(I found some chrome plugs that I popped in the holes)...Dave
