I came across this old Falls Roto Clipper. I can't seem to find any information on it anywhere. Anyone know the worth or where I can find more info?

Go on the forums of vintagemowers.net. Someone is sure to know.

Have you done a search on "Google" I find it the best on line site to get information.
There are very few places left that will even discuss vintage mowers as it appears these places were being bombarded with questions (mostly about value) that the members just said - no more - and so most will not even answer a simple question.
There may still be some appraisers left that will give some answers (for a price) but I have not seen any links.
Your best bet is to keep searching eBay in their vintage mowers and their sold listings as many people do use the eBay site. Many sellers will list their heavy items with "pick up only" as the shipping is expensive and difficult to even pack.
Here is what is presently listed on eBay (you will have to sort through to find a mower) so you can see that mowers are being listed and occasionally one will sell. You may never see a Falls Roto Clipper listed. You can place a watch on anyone of the listings if you wish to see if it sells.

Here is a link to the sold site on eBay (sold prices in green).

You might want to check listings in your local area such as Craigslist, USA4Sale, IOffer, and any other sites that are in your area as many times these are the best place to list things like this.
You can always start your price high and lower it if no one shows an interest.
To learn more about it, there are some old ads online--you can see if you can learn the year from matching yours to one of the ads (this is just a sample of what is out there):
If you put a search into Google and click images -- meaning the mower name + print advertisements you can find many more. There are Pinterest pages devoted to this line of mowers.
Perhaps for value, you could find a fellow Pinterest person who may share his/her expertise.
Keep checking back to eBay to find a sold version of yours that is an exact match.
The only way to find a true market value is to learn what someone else paid for the item.
Let us know what you find!! There are some of us on this site who are hungry to learn as much as we can about all things vintage...especially the cool old mowers!
Thanks!
