John , thanks for all the Gilmore pix , I have relatives in that area , but I couldn't convince them to go ...
 
Hi John,

Thanks for taking the time to post all of these pictures! I love the picture of the early riding mower.

I'll "snag" some of these to use in my turf class.

Larry, I took a lot of pix. Sometimes I wonder if you guys are getting tired of them. They are interesting to me, I don't know about anyone else. I have some from the tractor parade and some of the old cars in the museums I have not posted yet.
 
I enjoy all the photos! Thanks for sharing. The old mowers are quite interesting. I'm not sure OSHA even existed when those David Bradleys were made, but if you stayed behind the thing I don't see an excessive amount of danger. We have to keep in mind also, that back then people as a rule were more careful than today, they had more respect for machinery than today's "weekend farmers" who spend most of their time in an office.
