During my endless search for Pace information I found this advertisement from 19 March 1958, it helped me out as i didn't know the first model of pace ever used a re-coil starter. But theirs something else that i find odd! The ad shows some rare types of mower, such as the Carter and the Champion, but one catches my eye! There is a "Minter" in the ad, we know of a Minter with a Simplex 85cc engine, but this one is different, The engine is 3 1/2 horse power and has a re-coil starter, the fuel tank seems to be on the engine. The mower does not seem to have the same double rear wheels of the 1955-1959 version. Perhaps this version was meant to replace the earlier Minter? I am sure Jack would have seen this ad before so this might not be new information.
