Founded by Jerome Case in 1842, Case tractors were famous for entering the then-new tractor market alongside innovator Cyrus Hall McCormick of McCormick Tractor.

Officially starting business by modifying a threshing machine, Case evolved to manufacturing portable steam engines, traction engines and eventually, internal combustion tractors.

By 1895, the company merged along with other tractor industry giants including McCormick, Deering and Plano to form International Harvester, in an effort to enter the international market.

Case Tractors experienced numerous mergers throughout its business lifespan, and eventually merged with New Holland in 1999. Case antique tractors, much like their modern counterparts, are amongst the most sought-out possessions to collectors and enthusiasts in the modern day.
