A couple of queries...[edit]

It is Case CE or Case Construction Equipment a brand marketed by CNH Global N.V. incorporated in the United States, in the state of Wisconsin, as CNH America LLC [1]

The article mentions the Case 560 tractor for 1953. Is this really referring to the Farmall 560, introduced in 1958? I just don't know the 1950 era Case's at all. n2xjk 03:16, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Article Coverage[edit]

This article has errors - it makes the reader think Case and IH were merged early on, when in reality Case and IH were competitors until the mid-1990s. Perhaps the IHC information should be in an International-Harvester article, and provide links to it? Framerotblues 05:08, 24 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The whole treatment is a complete mess. This article is the main one that covers Jerome Increase Case AND the J I Case Company – both of which should really have their own pages for ease of reference and categorising. Fortunately, redirects exist for both of them so one day they may get their own articles!
From my point-of-view, I recently read a book which showed some of the Case traction engines which were such an important part of the 'Case' story. I'm not sure that they have ANY relevance to an article that also covers the current scene after so many name changes, etc...
Needs some reworking by an expert, or at least someone who knows about the subject (which I don't!)

3 years later, the same can be said. This is the Case page and there is way to much about International Harvester, what really should be moved to the International Harvester page.
The 123-SP harvester from 1942 mentioned in the article was not from Case, it was from International Harvester. This should be on their page. 188.22.169.247 (talk) 21:25, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

And the WD-40 is an International Harvester (as McCormick-Deering), not a Case. Is anyone with more authority going clean-up this article? AMCKen (talk) 23:23, 20 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I wish I could volunteer, but I am not knowledgeable enough about the histories of these corporations. Will revisit if I ever get around to reading about them. Sorry this comment wasn't too helpful. — ¾-10 16:17, 21 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

David Brown[edit]

No mention of David Brown tractors which displayed the Case logo during the late 1970's and early 1980's these were renamed to just Case Tractors and changed to A Yellow mustard colour.--Pandaplodder 22:37, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Case or CASE[edit]

I note that for some reason Commons has seperate category "Case vehicles" and "CASE vehicles". From the article, I'm assuming "Case" is correct? Any comments, or is the all caps some necessary sub-category? -- Infrogmation 21:13, 18 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Case Sensitive[edit]

Sounds like you are case sensitive.


Well, since the company name came from a persons last name, Jerome Increase Case, I think it is safe to go with that. CASE is just a marketing/advertising device. From the bottom of the webpage: " © 2007 CNH America LLC. All Rights Reserved. Case and CNH Capital are registered trademarks of CNH America LLC. - cnh.com" ~ WikiDon 22:14, 18 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. I just wanted to double check before changing the categorization on Commons all to "Case". Cheers, -- Infrogmation 23:29, 18 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Company name change confusing[edit]

The article now says "In 1842, Case created the J. I. Case Company.", later it says "In 1928, another name change came for the company, this time as the J. I. Case Company."
Twice the same name?

According to this source (http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/CNH-Global-NV-Company-History.html) it was like this:
1842: Jerome Increase Case builds his first thresher machine, and soon founds the Jerome Increase Case Machinery Company.
... the name was changed to Racine Threshing Machine Works.
1863: Company is reformed as a co-partnership, called J.I. Case & Co.
1880: Partnership is incorporated as J.I. Case Threshing Machine Company.
c. 1928: Case changes its name to J.I. Case Company. 1968 under Tenneco ownership rebrands JI Case as Case Corporation.

I do not know how much of this should be put in the article but as it is written now it is confusing. 188.22.169.247 (talk) 21:29, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

An Idea[edit]

How about we create 3 pages for Case--Case Corporation, ie Case 1984=1999; Case IH, 1999 to Present, and J. I Case Company 1844-1984 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.68.6.12 (talk) 23:20, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Remove Redirect[edit]

if someone could please figure out how to remove the redirect off J.I Case Company we can sort this page out

Case Corp is not JI Case. Just as CaseIH is not Ji Case, they are decendents but legally different companies. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.68.6. (talk) 19:34, April 25, 2012 (UTC)
