Re: S24 Help

What is the difference between a Yellow S24 decal and a White S24 decaled tractor?

Re: S24 Help

Hello Cletus, I have been searching for the origin of the white/yellow decals now for several years, with no definitive answer. The white decals were used on the early ( mid 70-80’s ) flat hood S17, S19, S24 tractors as best as I can tell. The font used is different then the red/yellow ones we are familiar with. When I was helping Speedex out in late 1994 I was asked to do some of the red/yellow decals before they stopped tractor production in Ravenna Ohio. Since then I have also made some reproductions of the white/yellow with very, very little asking for them from fellow collectors. I personally do not think they look as nice which I am guessing others feel also. There also were some black/silver decals of some of the other decals that showed up during that time. These did not survive as well and from all of this I believe the bottom line answer is that there was a supplier change requirement from Speedex for what ever reason and this is what the supplier was able to provide. Hope this helps. If you require the white/yellow decals I have them available…..for now Mike Hamper
