PART THREE – CATALOGUE PAGE EXTRACTS
The relevant catalogue pages demonstrate that
The Cleavers had a diverse offering.

The trump card was always Victa for rotaries, but Sunbeam,
Simpson, and Pace were also offered. Note that Pope lawnmowers
were sold under the Simpson name that reflected the actual
company at this time [Simpson-Pope] but also reflected what
name was better understood in a particular market. I guess
that the Simpson brand was better recognised in Tasmania
at that time.

The most interesting thing – for me – is the promotion
of British made imported reel mowers [Webb and Qualcast].
Note that the Webb mowers were all battery electric!
