I went thrifting today and found this, complete with green extension cord in the Quakertown, PA Salvation Army Thrift store. It was in the furniture room which for some reason I headed to first before the electronics section. No price on her, so I asked the boy who was sorting ladies shoes, he...

Hello, I did not realize posting vacuums from eBay would stir up any controversy. I simply wanted comment (resulting in insight) on the particular vacuums I found unique and interesting today. I am not planning on bidding on them, (though I did consider the pink one). I suppose this is a bit of...

Ian, My favorites are the Royal and the pink Eureka. The pink eureka, does appear to use modern filters, I was wondering about that myself. Maybe someone will enlighten us on that topic. Of course the royal is way out of my price range, but I do hope it ends up where it is appreciated since...

Hello, Sorry if I offended you Ohio_Tuec by posting these vacs on here, but the purpose of this thread for me, was to post vacs I found interesting and unique, and also to perhaps gain some insight on them from my esteemed colleagues, who are very knowledgable on such matters. Oh, and also, it...

Here are some interesting (at least to me) vacuums I see currently on ebay. This first one I assume is some sort of mechanical sweeper. http://cgi.ebay.com/Antique-Domestic-Wood-Vacuum-Cleaner-1910-Peoria-Ill_W0QQitemZ170157945495QQihZ007QQcategoryZ115993QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Broken Handle Pete is right, I think that would be the best possible fix, although I am no expert. If that doesn't work...there's always duct tape! When you said the handle was broken, I thought you meant that little stub of a handle on the blower door. I really thought that was broken when I...

Hi Arh, I have one too, only it is in silver. Exactly like that called the Silverado Special. From what I learned about it, it was a pared down model from the main Silverado. Yours looks to be a scaled down version of the Olympia. I believe the motors are the same as the higher end models. Oh...

Wow! That micro-meet looks like it was an enjoyable event for all! I cannot get over how many fabulous finds you picked up while thrifting! I think I need to plan a road trip and visit the canadian thrift stores.

Hello, I was wondering; did Electrolux ever advertise on TV or radio? Was it simply word of mouth and door to door? Also if they advertised on TV or Radio, did they have a "theme song?"

Wow, here is a cute canister vac I never saw before. Who makes this? It is called the Ladybug. I bet this will become a collectible one day. What a great vac to get kids interested in vacuuming. http://www.amazon.com/Ladybug-LB102-Canister-Vacuum/dp/B000EE8Y14

Another view Here is a picture of it removed from its base.

Just saw this on my local craigslist. Never saw one of these before. Kind of a neat design. In the ad the seller has it listed as a DD "Kone" Vac.

Oh My Wow! I am speechless as to the amount of promotional Lux items out there...who da thunk it? Off to eBay I go....
