In 2018 I acquired a rare Ogden Model A brochure in mint condition.
This augments the Model B brochure above.

The main difference between the Model A and Model B was the reel/bottom
block set mechanism. The Model A had a single set adjuster acting from the
centre of the machine (via a turn wheel). This was never a good design given
bottom blade flexing in the field. Traditional designs had used two adjusting
points - at each end of the reel - for a more accurate set. The Model B
would recognise this.

Scanning the Ogden Model A brochure was problematic in that this was no
pocket brochure; but a slightly larger than A3 size one, presented in a
quarter fold-out design.
