I found this video, posted by Lamar, MO.
https://youtu.be/MdjyBuxNkkA
It's about ten minutes long but I enjoyed it all. At about 4:50 they're talking about distribution and LB dealers and show a map of the USA with a bunch of dots (presumably the location of dealers). There are some dots in Georgia which seems odd since I never see any 1950s LBs here in GA. :confused2:
A little later in the video they mention that LB mowers have been getting lighter (and better in other ways) every year. I don't doubt that that was true in 1958 but what started happening in about the early 1980s is so sad: those fine machines got heavier and heavier and now they don't even have two-stroke engines. :mad:
Near the end of the video they show stacks of boxes containing 1958 Brick-Top Lawn-Boy mowers -- Oh to have one of those boxes in 2015. :cloud9:
