PART TWO – Model B Studio Images
The Model B made a significant change from the Model A.
The Model A was based on the English Qualcast 16” Power Mower,
a design dating to the 1930s; and that design was looking quite
tired by the 1940s, yet was still being sold well into the 1950s!

The Model B sat much lower and the frame cast a lower,
more modern silhouette. Yes, the wooden handles do look
out-of-place for an otherwise modern, all metal lawnmower –
but there is an explanation for that [see Part Three].

In any case, Morrison commissioned studio photographs of
the Model B and these are held by the Knowledge Bank, an
initiative of the Hawke’s Bay Digital Trust.
