Thank you for clarifying this
Thank you for clarifying this Clive, I had my suspicions about it but hadn't got round to checking it out. It looked just a little too contrived with the bonnet mascot and rear light !
As stated in another recent post research is everything.
That is nieve of me as I
That is nieve of me as I normally check the source of everything I read on the internet. A quick search just showed me it's not an old mower and not built by Indian Motorcycles.
Admin feel free to delete as appropriate.

Hello
Not sure of your reasons for posting this image especially with no accompanying explanation ?
Sharing images without research is helping the world wide web to corrupt history as i have found with the 'fake' images of Edwin Budding (Inventor of the Lawn Mower in 1830) which have been used & shared by many in ignorance including Ransomes.!!!! & more recently the Gloucester Citizen.
This mower pictured is apparently NOT made by Indian, but by a motorcycle enthusiast in 2016 & scratch built from bits of scrap metal.
I hope not too many OLD Lawn Mower enthusiasts have been mislead by this post, and a lesson learnt by all regarding the way in which the Web is corrupting history etc by the constant sharing and publishing of incorrect facts.
