    Vintage vaccum boxes

    Box's... they have some of the coolest print and design on them.That makes it exciting to find all the paperwork and add's to the machine.As to day,they don't do the graphic's like in the past.Especially,with the 30's and wartime boxes,clear into the 1950's and 60's.By all means collect them.

    Electrolux Vacuum Never Used...

    lux (never used) If that is a rebuild; it was a very poor job.And the cheap attachments say it all.That had to be rebuilt by the seller.I'd stay clear away from that.

    Kirby Hard Floor Attachment??

    Kirby attachments... to me they are so generic and sad in the way they look,To me rather cheap.For,what one pay's for a Kirby one would think they would make a set of metal wands,a actual floor brush with horse hair,including the dusting brush.There attachments just need to be more than they are.
