Achto 26,609 #1 Posted January 21, 2022 (edited) While doing a little surfing on the net I ran across this little gem that was made by Simplicity in 1957. Can you imagine if this thing would have actually been a popular hit on the market??? With AC and drink cooler, I would mow the lawn every day during the summer. I short write up on this Wonder of the world. https://www.vintag.es/2018/11/the-power-mower-of-the-future-1957.html Edited January 21, 2022 by Achto 4 4 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
