Anyone reading Lawn & Garden Tractor Magazine?

I have been reading it now for about a year. Some articles are pretty good and always learn something. 

One article in the summer issue is about the history of Gravely.

Started out 1915 through the current day.  Merged and bought several times. It now is an Ariens company.

Constant innovation. A real good example of brand building.

The most striking thing, how Ben Gravely pioneered his machines so early in the 1900's.

A good parallel to the WH story. 

 

For those that don't know it is in print form. Can be ordered at www.lagtmag.com

Last year I posted a story about The Gravely history, the one thing that stuck out for me was Benjamin Gavely's loyalty to and personal involvement in Charleston, WV.  He was quite inventive and could have built his business anywhere but his roots were in the Appellation mountains and he helped Charleston grow.
