Hello, everyone. This is my first post. We were given this lawn mower over 20 years ago, and its waiting for its third engine. This is a cast aluminum deck that has held up great, and would like to find out who made it. I can't read the info on the OPEI label, and can't find any other markings. The SUPREME and arrows are stick-on decals; looks like the deck was originally orange. Any guesses would be appreciated!

The style to me suggests 70's Yard-Man, whom also made machines from Monkey Wards (Montgomery Ward). I think I have also seen some 70's MTD with that deck as well. If not, it could also be Roper as the decal-style looks more like something I'd see on a Roper deck, particularly the Canadian ones, but I don't know if they made any aluminum decks.
