1948 Decals

[Qtr Milr]

I’m looking for new decals for my Cub. I’m having trouble figuring out exactly what set I need for my 48. Will the set off a 47 work without the circle cub??

According to TM Tractor the hood decal changed when the circle cub went away July 28, 1947. When IH dropped the circle cub they moved "cub" to the McCormic Deering Farmall hood decal. The late '47 kit is good for 1948.

Got it!! Sometimes there is just too much info on the web and it’s hard to tell what you really need.
Thanks!!

My '48 was manufactured in early '48 (Mar or Apr) and it's original decals were.

McCormic Deering
Farmall Cub

Of course there was an IH symbol in front of that. I've seen them available on line, but l also see a lot of "restored" cubs sporting decals that say McCormic without Deering.

If I remember correctly, "Deering" only appeared in 47-48.

And a lot of '49.

Thanks everyone! I’ve got the decal kit ordered. Hopefully I’ll get the hood painted next week!!

I did not know that. Anybody have an idea at what point it changed over?

Hood decal from July 28, 1947 until September 12, 1949(1) read "McCORMICK - DEERING FARMALL CUB". There was no decal on the radiator grille side.
