Montgomery Ward lawn tractors

Throughout the twentieth century, Montgomery Ward stood as a prominent American retailer, famed for its expansive catalog and widespread department stores. The company offered a diverse range of lawn and garden tools and machinery marketed under the names Garden Mark, Powr Kraft, and the Wards label. Manufacturing of Montgomery Ward tractors was outsourced to several firms, notably including Bolens, Gilson, MTD, and Simplicity. Ultimately, Montgomery Ward succumbed to financial difficulties and concluded operations following bankruptcy proceedings in 2001.
