Listen, I hate to cause trouble But Lucy wants it back.   Possession is 9/10ths of the law, so too bad!   Congratulations!

Nothing Says Love Like A Hoover! What a nice anonymous friend! The rest of them are quite stunning as well, by the way!

I do realize all people with money do not act with disregard Sorry to have insulted you Kirbyloverdan, I said the well-off and wealthy are OFTEN, NOT ALWAYS, I DO actually know that there are many people with money who treat their homes and possessions like they should. We have people here with...

I can't wait either! The well-off and wealthy are often either clueless or so loaded with funds that they can chuck flawless items with minor problems to the curb with no qualms. After all, in most of their minds, if it's old, it's trash. Glad you saved that baby, John!

Thanks for the clarification, Alex AND, the last two posts........PERFECT!

I don't think his sister had anything to do with it, I think the vacuums were flopped into her old room by someone else. I have definite opinions of people who throw out, move, or take things that do not belong to them without asking.

Whatever happened to "ask me first" before you move/ Parents, brothers, sisters, whoever, learn how to ASK before you trash or toss our things into the dump, or another room. Good luck Alex, I hope the losses are minimal.

Off the charts generous! Great graduation gift for the vacuum collector who has everything!

I vote for Vacuuholic.

We had a bank building from the 1920s or so in downtown Stuart Florida, that at the time had the local AA renting it. It burned to the ground, so to speak, it was a concrete and stone building. Somehow, instead of turning it into a parking lot, the building was reproduced after the fire, and you...

That is beyond horrible!! That is so evil and filthy, for you, the tenants, the business, I hope whoever did this is prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law!! We're all here for you!

I love the PortaPowers and all their variations. More bang for the buck!

They seem to be the same as General Electric, I have one somewhere, as well as the GE. They work pretty well. There's an old thread concerning both these models in the Archives.

Thanks and good luck to you, I can't trash pick, I get in enough trouble in thrift stores!

On Bachelor Father, there is an episode where Peter is vacuuming with the Swivel Top and humming along to the noise it's making. He composes a tune for a Twilight Zone type program as a result. I'm hoping Comcast gets Antenna TV here, that's my favorite vintage show.
