I want to try and find that bloke at a swap meet again who said he owns a Phillips mower, I wonder if it is just a normal Whirlwind, or is it a completely different mower, or different brand.
I strongly suspect it will be a Whirlwind.
I see no connection with the Hill's Hoist at all.
It may surprise some just how early Whirlwind started.
My earliest record is from mid-1955, but I am interested in this
machine too:- [note how the handle is similar to Adam's]
