Do you have any indication as to what year it would be from? As a rough guess?

Yeah, I am prepared to speculate...

Scott Bonnar historian Grant Simpson has listed the Supercut as
being introduced in 1950. My evidence says that would be late 1950
for the 1951 season. I think that's about right.

Yours is a very low model number, but the complication is what I
think was Scott Bonnar's early mis-reading of the post-war market.

I have argued on these forums that Scott Bonnar entered a new,
mass-market for its domestic range. I think SB later realised that a high-end
small reel would be problematic - given the influx of modern, lightweight
designs becoming available. They engaged in it a bit after the first Supercuts: -

So, even a low mower number, sales would have been restricted to
their traditional middle-class market. The 14" Supercut was an
expensive machine!

The best I can do - dating wise - is to say early 1950s.
