Look again please. The above eBay link you posted does not work for
me. However, I was able to find a similar vintage Toro lawnmower.
<https://www.ebay.com/itm/116530603540>
Such mowers are sometimes collectors items and sell for rather
astronomical prices. This one is $900. My guess(tm) is what you
found was actually a printed advertisement. Something like these:

Came up first in a search and displays for me, $5 plus freight.
