They were sold only in 1973 by Jacobson with an Oliver badge, so these riding lawn mowers are quite collectible today. The Oliver T&C were offered in four different sizes, but there were actually five models: the 75, 105, 125G, 125H, and 145.
How rare are the Oliver T&C mowers? Oliver experts believe fewer than 400 units were built.

Yes I haven't seen one around for quite a while, back in the 60's and early 70's my Dad owned an Oliver dealership in Northeast Nebraska. I remember the dealership having a few of them on the showroom floor but they were not a big seller, they also sold Bolens garden tractors which at that time were the "Cadillac" thus most people turned up their nose at the Olivers. Well I guess the Olivers have the last laugh now as they are worth more today. I guess I'm not sure what there wort today but by the response to this add I'm guessing quite a bit?

I decided to research the Oliver Garden Tractors and found this:
Oliver Tractor History
Oliver branded lawn tractors were built by Jacobsen. The tractors were only built in 1972 because White Motors consolidated its tractor lines under the White brand in 1973.
Model Power Mower deck Years
75 7 hp 34" deck 1972 - 1973
105 10 hp 42/50" deck 1972 - 1973
125 12 hp 42/50" deck 1972 - 1973

I have an Oliver 105 for sale. Also have a Jacobsen 14hp and snowblower to go with it. (Same as Oliver, but different grill. The oliver is authentic.both have mower decks also.)
