My father had a '57 Ride-a-matic before trading it in on a 1050. I still have the brochure

Yowsah!

Now that's what I call sweet advertising.

 

[CatDaddy]

I forgot to mention...

Wow, what scan quality. What kind of scanner do you use?

 

[guest2]

Kinda racy for it's time I guess!

CatDaddy
aegt asked the same question. You know it's kinda funny, I really don't know much about these things but went to staples yesterday for printer ink and saw this canon CanoScan LiDE30 for $79 before a $30 mail in rebate and figured for $49 I'd give it a try.

 

[CatDaddy]

I'm gonna have to drive to Lafayette & check out the Staples. That's darned good quality. And only $50 to boot!

Thanks!

That's a cool looking machine.

Don't see ads with clover in the grass like that now.

A ad for a 1957 Ride-a-Matic and the machine is the same age as I am so 47 year old tractor and the gal might be 25-30 and nice looking and today if she is still around is collecting Social Security check everymonth now. 72-77 years young.

Nice looking old tractor and the rider isn't bad neither Why is the reel mower in the front instead of the back:question:

 

[guest2]

It's PTO driven but the main reason is probably so the grass gets cut before the tires flatten it down.

 

[guest]

that clover filled lawn looks just like mine.... and if i looked like the woman on the tractor i would probably never leave the house..


I'd be entertaining myself..

That's more info than we needed!
Can't poke out the mind's eye!
