Hello
Ian and
ODK members,
"Swearword" - that's a treat to be sure!
Top Photo highlights: - First model Pope Rotary - super rare.
- Qualcast Rotary - very similar to
Frankenturner.
- Machine at right (behind Qualcast rotary). This is, I think a
Cambridge or Hibiscus rotary - rare.
- Machine at back (Red engine, yellow base)this could be
a first model Turner with GEB Kirby 4-stroke; or an elusive
Carter with Kirby 2-stroke (Ironhorse)
Middle Photo highlights:- Southern Cross (had to say that)
- Mercury electric (blue)(rare)
- gear Ransomes Automaton (broken roller)(super-rare)
- first model Sunbeam electric (red)
- orgy of Ogdens (power and Model B)
Bottom Photo highlights:- 2 early Grasshoppers (rare)
- a super-rare Pace Rollermower (super-rare)
- a wagon wheel (non-chocolate)
It is typical that these machines are not given TLC.
At least, they've survived.
If only we had a National Mower Museum...
Thanks for sharing these on
ODK.All very salivating.
