Hello
ODK History Lovers
This is the earliest recorded billboard ad I have found for an Australian
lawnmower. It is for an
Australian Presto, manufactured by
William Adams
and Company of Sydney. The National Library of Australia dates the ad to
about
1932 (the year the Presto was introduced).
So, alongside
Wrigley's and
Peters ice-cream (Gosh it's Good) we see the
Presto ad, with its slogan
The Magic Mower. It's a pity the Presto ad sits
above the
Wunda toilet paper ad ...
