Back in the late 50s or very early 60s, we had a horrible Sears mower that had a spring-loaded wind-up crank on top instead of a rope-pull starter. You'd wind it as tight as possible, put the crank back in place, and push a release. What a miserable machine. Is that what you mean by "crank style"?

I remember seeing Wizards until not too many years ago. I believe they were taken over by MTD.


And, as long as we're going back a ways, how about this?
