    Regina Model 59

          <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">I also had one of these types of Reginas once upon a time. Funny looking thing straight on from the front but beautiful in profile. It had good pick-up for a straight suction machine. Stan Kann said it was due to the...

    Dial-A-Matic Thrift Shop Sighting

          "Gotta say, $51 is highway robbery for a 30-year-old ordinary Hoover."     <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">I agree. That's why it's still sitting there in the thrift shop and not here at home. And I will say, it's not like it's going to fly...

    Dial-A-Matic Thrift Shop Sighting

          <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">I glanced at the little yellow Eureka -- a friend used to have one very similar, but more rounded on the edges. She called it "My Little Tomato." </span>   <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size...

    Dial-A-Matic Thrift Shop Sighting

          <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">This is in good condition, other than some scratching on the base. The handle is tight, not loose and wobbly. I was tempted to pick it up since I've never had a Dial-A-Matic. But when I saw the price, I passed...

    Kenmore Imperial Belts??

    <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">John, it seems to me that Stan used Hoover Elite belts in his Imperial but won't swear to that. You might get one and see how it fits. </span>

    Electrolux 1205

          <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">That's a beautiful LX. Was the metal shop able to re-chrome the cord winder without removing the cord? Just wondering how that was done.</span>

    Now here's something I've never seen before!

    <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">An Emdeco-branded Compact?! </span> <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">EMDEKO was the name of the company that manufactured the Filtex vacuum cleaner. I have a hunch the name came from someone's...

    A pair of Hoover 918s

          <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">Here are some more photos of the two 918s.</span>   <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;"></span> <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;"></span> <span...

    A pair of Hoover 918s

        <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">Here's another photo I overlooked. You can see that the darker machine is the one with the handle grip. You can also see that they both have white on-off switches. It's harder to see in the darker machine but if you look...
