Re: (ET) Sears "Electric Lawn Mower"
Geof,
I can get you pictures of a Sears tractor and maybe even more than
that. Give me some time to get them and i'll get right back to you.
Thanks,

Hi
First, I had a great time at the Re-Union, Thank you George for all
your efforts, and thanks to all the folk who can. Not only did I enjoy
the event I loved Vermont and that end of NY. As many of you who were
there I also bought a Sears “Electric Lawn Mower” from a person in Sand
Lake NY (about 40 miles form Bennington). I had been looking for about
a year and through the connection I’ve made on this list tracked one
down. Thanks to all. This was all done before I got wind of Jim Coates
pending sale of what is probably a very nice piece.
There is a Canadian Connection, The unit I bought serial number plate
says made for Sear Roebuck USA, and Simpson Sears Canada – At the time
Simpsons was a Canadian Icon store who partnered with Sears Roebuck for
a catalogue sales eventually this became Sears Canada when Walmart
started to move into the area. But, the fact remains that this is a
Tractor which was made to be sold in Canada.
Now having said all that my unit was nicely painted a metallic green by
the previous owner (he was a paint a body man) and I am again calling
in the list for some help. I would like to get it back to original I
got copy of the a manual which I down loaded form Sears it is in black
and white so I still have no idea of the livery for this tractor, If
you have a Sears which is in its original colours please send me
images, the more detail the better, or if you have or know of some
pictures please let me know so I can track them down.
Thanks in Advance
