Chain Saw Collectors Corner Mike Acres

Found some really neat pics today searching for another saw.

Click on the link and scroll down and you will see some nice saws and some NOS ones.  http://www.acresinternet.com/cscc.nsf/6359233ddce7cc3d88256bcb0059e03e/84110fcf9d16931488256ef300109752?OpenDocument

Just keep in mind that the info on that site isn't always correct, and some pictures are misleading.

It still is a very nice place to start the search for info on olders saws though, and it must have been a lot of work to to compile all the info!  ;D

I am pretty sure that is a re badged Poulan. I will call Mike this week to find out what's up.

That Rigid is definitely a rebadged Poulan 5200.  It's listed as such in a Poulan Private Label index that I have.
