The #5 mower was only built in 1955-1956; in 1956 they came out with the #7 mower. Do some more checking on make and model.

The mounting pins look very much like an AC setup, except the wooden block is holding the front of the mower way too high. The breakaway hinge and the drive v-belt pulley also look like AC. Not sure of the model but sure has AC characteristics.
