Hi Paul
Well, yes, the suggestion is that the Vinco followed the original
Villiers-powered model.

The separated handle must be later.
Best guess - 1959.

What is clear is that your Atco was Australian made.

My thoughts have always been that the first Atco rotaries
were Australian built and inspired UK machines. Any thoughts?

Cheers
