cast iron tractor seats

Can anyone tell me if cast iron tractor seats ever come with BOTH McCormick & Deering on them? Or is is always just one or the other on a seat?
 
I doubt it. IHC maintained 2 lines until the antitrust suits in the teens and by then I think they were pretty much using pressed steel seats. BUT, you can buy anything.

Thanks for your replies guys. My husband is restoring a rusty 1931 Farmall Regular and was unsure if one could get a seat with both Deering & McCormick. And the crowning touch will be a cast iron seat (cuz we just want one). We are keeping her rusty as we found her under a hugely overgrown honeysuckle, where she'd been sitting for about 35 years. It may be a couple years before it is running - she's in TOUGH shape and right now we are just collecting the needed parts. He's a good mechanic, so it will run perfectly, but look like it's been through H_ll and back. Will be winterized for most the year and be parked in front of our 1930's style cedar outhouse. In summer he will use her at threshing /plowing shows. Am taking lots of pics and making lots of notes along the way. Will post the story and pics someday at YT and/or Red Power. I'm the computer operator, hence my being in the discussion forum versus him.

Nebraska Cowman, I'm assuming that is a reproduction seat of some sort - as I've never seen one like it and there's no wear. Agree with Shadetree, you'd have Farmall permanently imprinted on your "seat".

Thanks again everybody and have a great day!
