Nice pictures David keep them coming.

Years ago in our area this type of mower was used as a highway right-of-way mowers, as they had a short connecting rod rather that a long pitman and would mow along a bank with the bar in almost a vertical position.

I had a Dearborn (very similar to this picture) on an 8N, that mower was often referred to as a Detroit Shaker as it would sometime give that little old tractor a good shaking. It was a 6� and a great fence line & bank mower. I also mowed some hay with it.
