Current Vacuum collection

Just old machines dating back to the 40's that my family owned & ended up in storage when new machines were purchased.

What are your dream machines yet to be found?

Nothing comes to mind, I suppose I'll know it when I see it.

What are your earliest and favorite vacuum memories?

Noise, dust, heat, flying gravel, & scared cats. I usually just went outside to play in the dirt with my Tonka trucks.

What is the history of vacuum you have owned?

The oldest is an Apex Air Queen my Aunt owned in the late 40's. My favorite is a Hoover Concept 1 my Grandmother bought new in 1978.

Have you ever worked on, repaired and/or restored any vacuum cleaners?

Yes, but mostly just to keep them working so I can use them.
