JP Electric Mower Rocker Switch

Enter a word or two to search the forum section and click the Search Forum button.

A non-member has been in touch asking about sources of replacement switch for JP electric mower dating from the 1950s. Apparently it's a a double pole spring return rocker switch made by Arrow and the mower is a 14" JP electric mower powered by a Brooks motor, vintage approximately 1950s. The image they sent me is below. Can anyone suggest a source for a replacement (which I suspect will be difficult) or a modern-day equivalent?

I think it would be very difficult to find that switch today, unless he chanced upon some new old stock, or salvaged one from a similar mower.

Probably going to have to adapt a switch from a modern electric mower.
