Description
Black and white 2 1/4″ x 12″ ad for their Lawn-Boy Power Mower. The headline claims that with this machine you can get “Big Lawns Mowed with One Hand Ease!” and the picture shows a man in a white shirt and a tie strolling along with only his right hand on the mower. In fact I think that it only has a single handle on this mower. The text talks about cutting “18-inch swaths” and weighing only 95 pounds yet it “runs all day on 20c worth of fuel”. The price mentioned in the ad is $110.
