    My first vintage vacuum!

    Just wondering as a new member here...if you are not sure of the date of manufacture of your vacuum, how do you really know it is a vintage model? The vast majority of my collection are newer and have the date of manufacture on a label, except for my oldest one which is a Kirby Heritage...
