We don't know for sure this is an International Harvester, do we?

It might even be a Mack?

Instead of having this an International Harvester unknown, this could be a Mack unknown. Maybe a Mack expert could identify it.

Doesn't it seem like these three trucks are the same make?

Call this truck a Mack “Early B Series” until proven otherwise.


Mack » BB / BC / BF / BG / BJ / BL
(1927 - 1939)
In 1927 Mack introduced a new series of trucks. It included a large number of versions (from BB to BX) with a payload from 1 to 8 tons, equipped with 57 to 128 hp engines, 4 - or 5-speed gearboxes, the double bevel or hypoid main gear, several sizes of the wheelbase and two types of cabs. The Models BJ and BB were the first trucks of Mack Company, built under the influence of new transport trends - machines capable of carrying heavy and bulky loads with greater speed. BB (1928-1932) - payload of 1.5 tons, BC (1929-1933) - payload of 2.5-3 tons, BF (1931-1939) - payload of 2.5-4 tons, BG (1929-1937) - the same as BB, but with a more powerful engine, BJ (1927-1933) - the first model in the range; originally had a capacity of 3 to 4 tons, but later was increased to 5-8 tons, BL (1929-1936) - details unknown. Trucks were produced with open-top cabins of the model A, and with closed cabs.

The Mack BJ and BB models, the first of the "early B Series" introduced in 1927, represented the company's first trucks developed in response to the demand for larger capacity, higher speed haulage.
