My Royal Privilege came in and I was surprised. It has middle suction, which I never expected. It's actually really cool looking. I think the Royal Version is more rare than the Dirt Devil Version. However, the seller did not ship it right and it is now scratched on top. Other than that, it is...

This is the vacuum I purchased.

Thanks for the info. It looks modern, but I have a feeling not many of them were made. I think it's heavy like a Royal Powercast. I purchased it for my floors.

I just purchased a Royal Privilege Vacuum Cleaner. How hard are those to find? It seems they did not make many of them, since it was $240. Are they one of the rarest Royals to find? I know Royal Powercasts are hard to find as well, especially brand new. I want to use it for my floors and I'm...

I did not buy it, as I was low on money. Oh well, I'll find something better. This was not even all original, as it had mostly replacement parts. I am very picky about originality.

I think I would make it look all original again. If I were to find an original logo bag, I would just put that on and also put on original wheels. Yeah, it's easy to restore a vacuum with all replacement parts to make it look original again.

So the machine is original, but only the bag was replaced? Well, if I do buy this, I could just try to find the original bag and put it on. But idk if I will buy it. I am very picky when it comes to originality. I have a Montgomery Ward Vacuum that I had to replace the bag on, but I have the...

So what your saying is, this vacuum is not original at all and all the parts were replacements? That might make more sense, because this is an odd looking model.

I'll show you some more pictures. I find it hard to believe that Eureka made replacement blue vinyl bags.

On the back, it says it was made in 1963, because it says Jun 1963. Idk, it looks all original to me. The seller says it's all original too. I've never seen a blue Eureka replacement bag before though. That cord also looks 1960s too.

Is the bag original on this? It does not have a Eureka logo on it.

I do have plans to restore the 1960s Eureka Montgomery Ward Vacuum Cleaner to original condition. I'm still looking for a seamstress to put on a brand new zipper on the cloth bag. Once that is done, I plan to take the vacuum cleaner to the Vacuum Store to have it restored inside and out and to...

Inside of the Eureka before I got it restored.

I don't have space for anymore Vacuum Cleaners, even though I really want a Hoover Dial a Matic.
