How much is this lawn mower worth?
Perhaps someone can help you with this but we really have to have more information or it will be very difficult to place a value other than just saying: vintage push lawn mowers are listed for sale on eBay for $25-$400 and sold mowers are about the same.
The value is based on sold listing of the same item as it shows what someone was willing to pay.
I cannot find any mower that is even similar as you have provided no information with which to search.
From the one picture it appears the mower has been repainted and was painted over old (maybe rusted?) frame. Was any of this the original color?
Perhaps someone else can help you with further information that I have not found.
You can always submit your picture and ask for information on forums but they do not usually provide any type of value but may be able to tell what brand mower you have.

ThriftyFun also has information:
It seems to me that you have 1950s Dunlap Electric Mower. Your lawnmower looks great, but I think that shipping will be really more expensive than the sale prize.

I have a George Gear Drive tractor that has several attachments. I am curious how much it's worth, and if anyone else has one or at least parts. It was made by Community Industries in Sullivan Illinois.
It was made between 1948 and 1953. Please let me know what you can find. Any info would be appreciated.This site is probably what you have already found.
You might try asking for help on this site.

It appears it is not a well-known brand, so most likely it will be about the same value as any of the lesser-known brands located for sale/sold on auction sites.
You can ask for help on this site but they will want pictures and information about condition.

Huffy Mower. Model no. 52-16. I think it has a great overall look to it with its bold colors and lettering. I was curious if its actually worth any value?
Is it something I should hold on to? Or has the day come to set it out for the trash? Thank you!

I think this is one of the National Triplex Mower models (reel type rotary mower).
For example like this National Triplex Reel Mower www.gardentractortalk.com/
What's it's worth and how rare. I can't find any online.
This is a vintage MontanaMower, your model was made in the late 1940s-1950s.
I found advertisements with the same as your lawn mower model: www.tractorbynet.com/
The Montamower was patented in 1923, and that may have been the first year of actual production. The mower was sold by the Montamower Sales Co. of Grand Rapids, Mich., from 1923 until about 1962.
By the 1940s, the name of the mower was spelled MontaMower, and the manufacturer was known as Montamower Distributing Co.
"A disc mower, the MontaMower had a series of nine pairs of disc blades, with nine cutting teeth on each disc. Each pair of discs was on top of the other. As they rotated toward each other, they cut the grass. The pairs of blades were attached in a line across the front of the mower. This was a new concept in cutting grass. To my knowledge, the MontaMower was the only mower of any kind to use it.
I found MontaMower the same model as yours (48" tall, 16 5/8" wide across the blade head, 16 Cutting wheels or blades, works as well as it did when new, the name is also says "Made by the Monta Mower Company"), the price is $199 picclick.com/
Another similar looking lawn mower with original booket is on sale for $139.99 www.ebay.com/
MONTA MOWER is being auctioned at www.k-bid.com/
Another MontaMower was sold (estimated price $40-60) www.liveauctioneers.com/
I can pick up this vintage Dayton high wheeled lawnmower for free. Would it be worth anything if I restore it?
There is very little known about this particular brand and it's possible it was made by a brand name company and sold to a store under 'their' brand.
There is a little more information available on the Dayton riding mower as everyone seems to think it was made by MTD but that does not mean your Dayton push mower was made by the same company.
I found a lot of information on Dayton lawn mower parts and it's possible this company may have made mowers under that name some years back but it's difficult to find a Dayton company website to even ask questions (mostly companies that sell Dayton parts for other machinery).
Here are some sites that may be able to help you with more information but not value.

I would say that judging by sales on eBay most of the running used mower sales are under $40 unless it is a brand name mower.
Your location will have the biggest impact on value as some areas still buy the older push mowers (cheap) while other areas may be 'ride on' only and no interest in used mowers.
I believe it would probably be a waste of time, money and energy to restore it - just my opinion.
You can look at the vintage push mowers listed for sale on eBay to get an idea of what people are asking for unknown brands but also notice they are usually local pick up only.

Asking prices do not show value as only a sold item will show what someone was willing to pay for an item. You can see what this type mower is selling for but the big problem is that you have no way to know how long the item was listed for sale before it sold.
www.ebay.com/
If you pick it up and it is running/usable then you could try some of the local sites like Craigslist, USA4Sale, etc and start your price at $60 and see how it goes - lower the price if no interest.
Here the Dayton Push Mower with 3 HP Briggs & Stratton engine was sold for $27: bid.beckortauctions.com/
