PART THREE - By George! I Think He's Got It.

There was one final clue: The name 'George' is significant and another obvious clue.
Nock and Kirby's main, most famous - and iconic - store was at 413-421 George Street, Sydney.
It was not uncommon to name lawnmowers (or cars) after geographic locations.

SUMMARY

The George is a rare lawnmower: I do not know of any collector owning one, nor have I seen
any contemporary photographs of one. I would like to think, though, that some have survived.

The George is important. It was not simply a re-branded lawnmower (some features seem unique).
I hope one will be found one day, as a record of the diverse lawnmowers that appeared in the
explosion of the rotary design, in the Golden Age of 1950s Australian lawnmowers.

The rest is history.
