Multum In Parvo
You’d have thought that a foray into Latin would mean I was about to say something profound, but in contrast Multum in Parvo, or “much in a small space”, is actually the name of the old lawnmower shown in the picture! It was made by Green’s in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and features on oldlawnmowerclub.co.uk (does what it says on the tin!) as a Mower Of The Month. This is an old lantern slide I picked up recently in a box of allsorts. I didn’t really think much of it at first, but I must confess on each look it becomes more captivating.
