Hello
ODK History Lovers
The
Mobilco Cruiser was a
14" power reel lawnmower made from
late 1956. It was designed
and manufactured by
Mobile Industrial Equipment of
410-422 Whitehouse Road, Mitcham, Victoria.It is a rare machine, and I do not believe it was made for more than a season or two. It was the most handsome
of lawnmowers, and it was a
completely Australian design (with the exception of the engine).
Here are a couple of early announcements, from the Melbourne
Argus, 11 September and 24 October, 1956:-
