Hello All
Any ideas as to a make & date for this U.S. reel mower, its from an old postcard 1910 ?? or before??
2 grim faced ladies in bonnets pushing the mower, how about that cute little spanner hanging down from the lower handle bracket.
Let me know

US Reel mower, its a Dille & Maguire!
Thanks after 194 views of my query I have found the answer, the mower would appear to be manufactured by Dille & Maguire around 1895 -1905?
There is an interesting video on the history of this company (link below) well worth a look
