PART TWO – The Company
Grassmaster Pty Ltd is largely a mystery and there
are a lot of unanswered questions…

I only know the Grassmaster Company when it was in difficulty –
with a series of newsprint notices starting from about 1966.
The company was struggling and then liquidated.

I present a selection of those notices in the gallery.

It’s clear – at least to me – that the Grassmaster premises
was an assembly facility: not a manufacturing factory.

My best guess is that Grassmaster was established
to market cheaper mowers through department stores.

Who made key components for Grassmaster?
I’m thinking Hurricane and Walmac. Any ideas most welcome.
