I see a couple of web sites mentioning that machine "Trim-O" mower.
One page has a photo that you can still see the "Trim-O" name on the air shroud.

Been a while, but I recall people referring to any narrow cut mowers as "monument mowers" .

A couple of sites where people have/had one.
Unfortunately Looks like any links mentioned therein have gone dead though

You might also try searching by the Jacobsen and the blade length or cut width. 13" ?
You probably have already noticed that many folks will list the mower with the spelling of an "O" instead of the "E" in the name.

Auto-correct will try to swap in the letter "O", so watch out for that when you're searching.
