    <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">Mmm, I assumed the gun was an air rifle. I'm not one who knows much about guns, mind you. </span> <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">We had a Lionel train set when I was a kid and it had that...

    Rusty XXX needs a new home

        <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">That is one of the last XXXs -- note the LX-style blue leatherette covering on the top. If it was a rebuilt machine it would have a tag on it indicating as such. </span>   <span style="font-family: trebuchet...

    Take a look at these....

    Anyone ever see a wasp (or hornet) this big? <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">My nephew from Maryland is visiting. This past Sunday, he, Arlee and I went hiking up to the Bronson Caves north of Hollywood (location of many old westerns and science fiction...

    The General Electric's!

    <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">The pink G.E. did originally come with a brown hose. Which, yes, I agree is odd - especially since the rubber bumper around the rim of the wheel-caddy was gray.</span>

    Decided to sell GE Swivel Top!

          <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">Just curious ... how much are you asking for it? How will you arrange the purchase and delivery? (e.g., ebay, private sale, etc.)</span>

    G.E. Swivel Top! Another Estate Find today!

          <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">I've never been overly impressed with the performance of any of the G.E. canisters, including the Roll-Easys. They seem to have wimpy suction and poor air flow and, in short, are just "under-achievers." But I do have...

    Lux floor polisher

          <div><span style="font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size: medium;">I'd love to have it if it's in really excellent condition and has the original box and accessories -- there would be two sets of brushes (an outer rim-brush and an inner star-brush), then a lambs-wool pad with...

    What vacuums do U regret getting rid of?

    <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">There have been so many that I wouldn't know where to start: Many vacuum cleaners have had to leave the Home for Wayward Vacuum Cleaners over the years, and most generally under difficult or hardship circumstances. </span>...

    What is the most amount you've spent on a vintage vac?

          <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">The most I've paid for a vacuum cleaner wasn't really for the vacuum cleaner itself but the shipping cost to get it here.</span>   <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">About 10-12...

    Favorite Pre-G Series Kirby?

          <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">For me, it's the 560 and 561 in the later 500-series and the 514 and 515 in the earlier series.</span>   <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">Although, really, I love 'em all!!</span>...

    General Electric Canister on Ebay! "Again"

          <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">I can't find the re-listed auction of this G.E. ... It would be helpful when people post about eBay auctions if they would include the item number or, better yet, a link right to the listing.</span>

    My New Find at an estate auction! Electro-Hygene (Royal) Canister Vacuum!

        <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">I have the same machine. Its retro-looking design is wonderfully "over-the-top." Mine has a cord winder. </span>
