THE COTTAGE GARDENER AND COUNTRY GENTLEMAN, APRIL 26, 1859.
PATENT LAWN MOWING AND ROLLING MACHINES, IN USE IN THE ROYAL GARDENS.
SAMUELSON'S (BOYD'S) PATENT LAWN MOWING MACHINES.
The only Machines that will cut wet Grass without clogging the Knives. The only Machines that have the Self- cleaning and Sharpening Apparatus. The only Machines that have the Patent Apparatus for instantaneously regulating the set of the Knives.
FOR BEAUTY OF WORK AND SAVING OF TIME, THEY ARE UNEQUALLED.
The Times of September 20th, 1858, remarks:-" Of the two, it was infinitely more pleasant to watch Boyd's Patent Mowing Machine, near the Cricket Ground, slipping so smoothly along, Mowing the Grass, wet or dry, and doing the day's work of five or six men in a single hour."
TESTIMONIAL RECEIVED FROM KENSINGTON PALACE GARDENS.
"Kensington Palace, 14th Oct., 1858.
"I have in use one of Boyd's Patent Lawn Mowing Machines,' which does its work most effectually. The apparatus for cleaning and sharpening the knives prevents their becoming clogged when used in wet weather, and does away with the loss of time and disappointment' which attends other lawn mowing machines, for want of such valuable improvement. "I can strongly recommend it for saving of labour and economy, while for efficiency of workmanship, it far surpasses anything the mower can expect to accomplish with a scythe. (Signed) "J. MANN."
