YES, I HAVE THE INFORMATION YOU SEEK.
  LENGTH OF ONE BLADE- 26"
  BLADE THICKNESS (CROSS SECTION) .250" (SOME OLD STOCK ITEMS ARE 5/16")
  MOUNTING HOLE- .750" X 1.50" ?  (RECTANGLE)
  ROTATION- COUNTER CLOCKWISE
  THE BEST ONES WERE MADE BY LUND CO. (STAMPED ON BLADE NEAR MOUNTING
  HOLE) 
       PS THESE UNITS (76" YAZOO MOWERS WERE FEW EVEN WHEN NEW)
    IF YOU SHOULD NEED MORE SPECIFIC INFO I CAN PROVIDE BUT WILL HAVE
    TO MELT OPEN THE DOOR TO MY SHED!! 3-5 DEG. F. !! THANKS ptrbnthbox

Dear infoware-ga;

Thank you for allowing me an opportunity to answer your interesting question.

Wow. It turns out that a blade for a vintage mower is really hard to
come by. After some lengthy digging though, I finally had some luck
with a couple of sources:

R&R PRODUCTS lists that replacement blade in their 2004 catalogue and
I have confirmed by phone that they do have this part in stock as we
speak. They offer second day shipping via FEDex and the blades
themselves cost $10.95 each.
Site: http://www.rrproducts.com
Catalogue: http://216.239.41.104/search?q=cache:_HEuo7CfwxgJ:www.rrproducts.com/pdfCatalog/fitsWoods.pdf+yazoo+%22(206-776)%22&hl=en&ie=UTF-8

CASTO COMPANY lists the blade on their site but advised me they do not
actually stock it. However they told me that they can order it and
have it on hand the follow weekday. They charge $32.95 for a set of
three.

PS: Both sites offer an online shopping cart so you can order the
parts directly from the internet if you prefer to do it that way.

PSS: Once source (not one of the above) told me that they were sold
out and had been notified that the blades were discontinued by their
supplier. They may become even harder to find in the future so you
might consider stocking up on these parts while you can in preparation
for future replacements.
