Anyone ever use one or see one, how old would this be.

Ooh! Ooh! Mistah Kotta! I know this one!

It's an "Estate Keeper", more of a compact tractor than a garden tractor. Here are some images from the original brochure

On the first page it looks like the diver has been eating pickles!

... and many more. I could not find the page linking them all.

Jacques has put together many pages of links related to Bolens tractors. It is interesting to poke around the site.

I think this is one. it has no brand listed, comes with no mower deck, but looks like fun. trying to convince the wife this would be good for something...
