NOW!   "BIG TRACTOR" PERFORMANCE AT BUDGET PRICE 

Full 2¾ HP

No Garden tractor in its class will give you more versatility, economy and ease of operation than the new Simplicity MODEL A.  This bantam powerhouse means practical, low-cost power all year long.  Compact; stores in small space.

Perfect balance and elimination of useless weight and bulk make the MODEL A light, maneuverable and easy to handle.  Yet its energetic 23/4 HP engine provides plenty of power for big jobs.  And its sturdy steel frame, with an all-weather hood, gives it strength for years of trusty service.

MODEL A's all gear transmission is fully enclosed, with sealed lubrication -provides two forward speeds and reverse. Wide spread handles are adjustable for height. Knob tread tires for superior traction and good flotation.
