I would guess Modern Tool & Die Company aka MTD, probably from the 60's

they’re listed as 12” wheel weights.

Even the iH work vans are cool.

not mine. just a heads up for the iHCC crowd, in case someone seeks one. spotted near KC on the fb mkt place, appears to be an iHCC cart, w/o the tailgate and described as having rusted-out wheels:

Scored this 129 yesterday for $375. Doesn't run yet, but came with a 48" mower deck, 2 extra mule drives, IH snow plow, AND (drumroll please) an IH snow blower attachment. The screw on the blower is in rough shape, like they used it to clear snow off a boulder field, but a little hammer/welder/grinder love and some spray paint should get it back into half decent shape. It probably needs some serious lubing up as well, the chain looks rusty as hell.
The only physical damage I could see was a few cracks in the fiberglass cowling near the driver end. Also came with the original IH service manual and probably every receipt for service it's ever had.
