Yep. John D. Ross’ company. Same company for the Ross Crown, the Ross Star, and that hose nozzle. Luther Burbank said Ross’ star or square sprinkler, don’t remember which now, was the best sprinkler to use for roses. Pasadena was a hotbed for irrigation, especially before the war. Love that you showed the handheld waterer, too!
Bill, Thank you for confirming my thoughts about them being the same company. The comment about being the best sprinkler for watering roses would make sense. The Pasadena area is famous for roses. You’re the best historian! Thanks for the comments and for watching!…

Nice Ross sprinklers and hose sprayer. I have not seen or heard of the Ross line of irrigation products before.
