Hello ODK History Lovers

Here I present a great time capsule of British lawnmowers from the 1960s.
It is a Review of various makes in Which? , a consumer magazine similar to
Australia's Choice Magazine.

Many of the reel lawnmowers reviewed in the article were imported and sold in Australia.
However, none of the odd-looking rotaries made it here.

Here is a list of the power mowers reviewed.
I have made a separate listing for the push mowers in the European Push Mower Forum.
