Shaw Celebration
(Page 2 of 3)
By the early 1920s, Shaw turned to garden tractor designs. The first examples were understandably crude and utilized Shaw-built engines. The Shawmobile was also redesigned and marketed as the Shaw Speedster. By 1930, waning interest in the Speedster led to its discontinuation as the company's efforts shifted into garden tractor production.

Shaw's garden tractor was patented in 1924 as the Shaw Du-All. The T-25 was the first successful model and Shaw soon found that demand far outweighed his ability to produce engines quickly or cheaply enough, so he purchased engines from other sources. A Briggs & Stratton engine was adapted to the T-25, as well as the company's second-most successful tractor, the Model T-45. Many variations of these two models were available, but the T-25 and T-45 were the company's mainstay for nearly a decade.
