Hello everyone.
Steve here, and I am new to this forum but have read helpful information about mowers on this site (thanks). I have kept for 30 years my grandfathers 1958 Lawn Patrol mower. I am going to restore it next year and have been trying to collect parts for it. However, I have gained 3 working mowers this year - a bit much. So, I thought I might continue writing the history of this mower, the John Boundy story and hopefully, justify a place for an exhibit of one in the Australian National Gallery Canberra over time.
I like the advertising material that was produced for LP and the slogan - Lawn Patrol 'out mows 'em all' Not as catchy as the Victa slogan but, nevertheless its all part of the history. Any information about the mower and Boundy will be gratefully accepted. The history starts from "John Boundy Diesels" - prior to Boundy Manufacturing Pty. Ltd.
In the meantime, I will continue to enjoy the variety of activities members communicate.
Regards,
Steve
