Hello ODK history lovers
Walter Barr Pty Ltd was an early Australian plastics manufacturer.

This is an interesting story in that Walter Barr supplied wheels to many Australian
lawnmower makers and these were branded as ‘Walter Barr’. I am convinced
that they also supplied many more mower makers with custom branded wheels
and other components. I doubt whether that story will be told …

The thing is that Walter Barr did so much more than mower wheels and were
a key player in early post WWII consumer plastic products. There are many
surprises in the Walter Barr story!
