But surely I'm not the only one wanting to know more about the lawnmower?? Say what you like about the 50s, but those dudes dreamed up some cool stuff.
Can you imagine this sort of thing being pitched today, never mind made?

- dguest 3y agoYeah, and the space ship. I was hoping they would explain why the lawn mower has a big glass shield around the bottom. I always hated how I couldn't mow the lawn in the same slacks and shirt that I wore to the office cocktail party later. Was this shield there to solve this annoyance once and for all?
