As mentioned the #24 picker didn't have a separate husking bed. If corn was fairly dry it did a decent job of picking the ears without many husks. But, if the corn was wet or had tight husks you a lot of the ears would still have most of the husks on them. I can remember more than once that we had to use dynamite to break the ears loose when shelling it out of the Behlen cribs. We raised some corn for the packing company back then but I don't ever remember picking sweet corn with the #24.
Everything was picked by the canning company with special pickers. WE did raise some popcorn and the #24 did an excellent job in picking it. In fact, the popcorn company hired us to pick for other area farmers because the #24 didn't damage the kernals like the 2MHs and other colored pickers did. They wanted as much of the husks left on as possible. My son, IHboog, worked for a couple seed corn companies after graduating college. They would start picking seed corn around 45%. I've seen their pickers & juice was running off them like they had been picking sweet corn.
The #24 had snapping rolls, but it did not have husking rolls. The later pickers had combination snapping AND husking rolls. The one exception that I am aware of would be the #234 which used a husking bed that was part of the hopper/elevator. The husking rolls on a #24 were extensions of the snapping rolls, just like a john deere 227. None of the #24s I was ever around had any husking rolls. Some where I have a manual for a #24. I'll see if I can find it.
I found the manual, and I stand corrected. There WERE husking rolls at the top of the snapping rolls. Apparently those husking rolls were not very efficient though. #96812 is when they started to update so frame, frt wheels would be different, stronger more holes etc That would translate into early into the 1942 production year the changes in the wheels and frame were made. Garrett I do not recall the model year of the H that was mounted on the #24. If you will note it has the later hydraulic seat. The hydraulic seat wasn't offered till 1948.
It is possible to mount this seat on an older H and it was done. But I'm guessing H in the photo is 48 or newer. On page #70 of C. Wendel's '150 Years of International Harvester' there is a photo of a Farmall H picking sweet corn with a mounted #24-SC. This is a #24 modified especially for harvesting sweet corn.
In this SC model the husking rolls were removed and stripper plates were added along side the snapping rolls. The snapping rolls were a new star-type and a high speed gear box were part of the modifications made to handle the crop. The #24-SC was available from 1949-1952 with 127 units manufactured. You may be able to pick sweet corn with the #24 and you may be disappointed with the results.
One way to find out. First #24 I ever knew of was about 10 hears ago. There was a farm sale in the northern part of the county. The Farm had a 2-ME still mounted on the tractor and a shredded #24. I had to work the day of the auction so I didn't get to see them sale and the auctioneer wouldn't take and absentee bid from me.

The 24 picker was about the most dangerous hand grabber ever made. They have a trash, stalk roller right at the rear right within arms reach from the seat.
My dad lost his shirt sleeve, two brothers out this way each lost a hand. My dad picked, neighbor hauled and elevated the corn. There was always a huge pile of corn stalks next to the elevator.
First year he had it, they were taking it in for extra aggressive little additions to the snapper rolls to take the stalks through. Of course, other pickers had problems also. Chicken wire was often used to wrap around the snappers to take the trash through to ground instead of into the husking beds.
The #24 had snapping rolls, but it did not have husking rolls. The later pickers had combination snapping AND husking rolls. The one exception that I am aware of would be the #234 which used a husking bed that was part of the hopper/elevator. The husking rolls on a #24 were extensions of the snapping rolls, just like a john deere 227. The JD #226, #227, and #237 ALL had separate husking rolls (4 per row) from the snapping rolls, (2 per row) I would have to look at my literature for the #25 picker, and I do not know about the #101 semi-mounted picker, or the pull-types.
Prepping the tractor will take you a while, a couple of days if you have never done one before. If you thought you were just going to drive the H to where the corn picker is, mount up and go. No, no, no, it doesn't work that way. You have to set the wheels out to the end of the axles, take the fenders off, bolt the undercarriage on to the drawbar brackets, and mount the lift arms to the belly. You are about to find out why they stopped using mounted implements.

They take a LONG time to get ready and being that this is your first time being around one, you'll be learning too. I don't want to burst your bubble, I just want to make you aware. Are you taking the picker off of another tractor or is it currently off and in the barn? If the current owner is a neighbor that will make things easier for you, hopefully they are patient.

Cooter is 100% correct. I've been reading your post and thinking in the back of my head that you had no idea what you had in store and though you could just run down the road with your tractor and in a few hour be home.
That isn't the case at all. I hope the present owner has the owners manual.
It can be helpful on the installation. Back in the day when we had the 2-MHD dad preped the tractor in a day, That included removing a fast hitch, dropping a wide front, installing the tricycle front, removing the fenders and sliding out the wheels, and installing the undercarriage. Then he and his brother mounted the picker in a half a day, but they had gone through the process so many times they just knew what to do.

You don't have near the picker to deal with, but you still have a job ahead of you, and from what I've read I'm not sure you have even looked it over yet. Don't want to discourage you, be for warned and prepared.
