Here is a nice looking push mower from I'd say around the early 1900's maybe. It looks to be that everything on it is the original part. From the base of the mower to the handle, it measures about 51 inches. The width of the wheel base is about 19 1/2", tire diameter 10", and handle width about 13". on the long part of the handle is written "the speedy ball bearing self spring adjusting/ ball bearings/ manufactured for Stratton-Warren HDW Co, Memphis, Tenn." Unfortunately, with all of this information, I have yet to find any info on this item. We were going to fix it up to mow our lawn with, but found this text etched on the handle and got curious. If anyone has any info and/or approximate value, it would be greatly appreciated. Also, if there are enough inquiries about this item being sold, it will be put up for auction on Ebay- most likely on a pickup only basis. I can put more pictures up if necessary. Thanks again.
