The Loyd Motor Sickle was made by Vivian Loyd and his company in
Camberley, Surrey, England. But, there is a backstory�

Vivian Graham Loyd was a war veteran whose claim to fame lay in military equipment
manufacture. The Wikipedia entry says Captain Vivian Graham Loyd MC, (13 May 1894 �
1972) was an English soldier and engineer who designed armoured vehicles including
the Carden Loyd tankette and Loyd Carrier. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vivian_Loyd

This association � between war and lawnmowers � is not as uncommon as one would think ...
and military themes have been popular with lawnmowers � �Combat�, �Sabre�, �Commando� �
Think of lawnmowers, then, as peace makers � between you and the lawn.
