I mostly own modern stuff, I think the oldest one I own is a Eureka Whirlwind big Cup from 2000(ish). I never have any luck finding any old decent machines
What are your earliest and favorite vacuum memories?
My Grandma using her green Eureka Samson, that machine was a beast. She would send us down to the basement to play while she vacuumed and I could hear the thing beating on the carpet.
