A man pushes a "Genuine Philadelphia Lawn Mower" through the grass on the lawn of Philadelphia's historic
Independence Hall in this early twentieth-century postcard. I suppose that the location proved just how genuinely Philadelphian these lawn mowers really were!
"Genuine Philadelphia Lawn Mower. Style 'K' Mower."
Printed on the back of this postcard: "Genuine 'Philadelphia' Lawn Mowers, standard of the world. All knives vanadium crucible steel. Style 'K,' 10 inch wheels, 5 blades, 6.5-inch cylinder, single pinion, geared on both sides. List Prices. 14 inch - $20.00. 16 inch - $22.00. 18 inch - $24.00. 20 inch - $26.00."
