1960 Lawn Boy w/rear catcher
I had seen a post here asking to see old Lawnboy mowers, but I cannot find it now, so here goes.........I bought this model #7250 LB mower new in 1960 and have used it ever since. I now have 15 acres and use it only for mowing around the back door and a little in the front yard. I think it is pretty good for a 52 year old mower. I always drain the gas tank and run the carb bowl dry before I put it up. It has always been kept inside; never rained on. I never wash it. Water = rust and ignition problems. I replaced the wheel bolts about 20 years ago and have kept them well oiled since.
