Those were the days when mower companies took real pride in a new season's
release. These are brilliant bestseller. The timing to 'prime' the dealers
in August is obvious - just before the 1963 Range release in September of 1962.

Your colour insert in Victa Cuttings is a rare treat indeed. The primary
colours in blocks reminds me of Andy Warhol's art - not inappropriate for the
times; and the 'modern' range Victa wished to portray. The '63 Range would be
a classic ... like a can of Cambell's Soup.

The Range that introduced Victa's first rear-catcher mower, with chrome
folding handles and two-tone enamel ... WOW!

To compliment the August '62 docs, I have included for download here
a set of newspaper advertisements for the 1963 Range:-

Sydney Morning Herald 09 September, 1962, page 28
Sydney Morning Herald 04 November, 1962, page 30 & 31
Sydney Morning Herald 16 November, 1962, page 7
Sydney Morning Herald 23 November, 1962, page 7
