Cole...those were the same things I was thinking! I think you hit the nail spot on!

Good find! Too bad NLA! I had one of those but gifted it to a fellow collector on this sight who shall remain shameless...I mean nameless..lol.

Very nice!! I have one of those bojack lightening bags that I removed from one of my Kirbys. Must have been a popular replacement bag..I wondered about it's origin. That's a beautiful bag you put on. How did you get it to look so good?

Toy Windtunnel I have a NIB that I bought at the Hoover museum when we were there for the convention. Although every convention is wonderful, that one was exceptional!

I think your hepa would be ok..since you use high quality bags. I use hepa/cloth bags in my Wintunnel and Simplicity and never have dust in those bag chambers and rarely change my secondary filters. Btw..we have the same living room tables! I have two end tables, coffee and sofa tables..love...

Eureka! I have one of those without the original bag...

Wow Kevin, that's some real talent there, good job!

I have one.... It has a metal base and top fill bag...love it for both reasons![this post was last edited: 11/2/2019-21:14]

I had one of those only in a rust color and badged Kenmore. I bought it I want to say new for $30..it was the bottom of the line but I wanted it for canister duty as my upright was a new Kirby Classic which I loved for weekly carpet cleaning but hated changing it out for the occasional...

Thank you Robert and John...well said!

He was a great funny caring man with a love for vacuums and the members of the VCCC...May he rest in peace. He will be missed.

Yowsa...that's the way to do a mini-meet! Looks like a great time was had by all! Btw, is that Cadillac a '58?

Hoover 61 There's a good example on ebay right now.

Search Russian under vintage vacuum on ebay...current listings.

If you like that model...you should try an XL21/Platinum model! Quieter, better air flow, better brush roll. I worked part time for Oreck for 8 yrs. Huge seller even with the 699.00 price tag. Yours sold for 499.99.

Still in the box I did not wait for the lowest price but still feel I got it for a fair price. It's still unopened in the box...considering gifting it to a fellow collector. I am soo out of room!

I've noticed a couple of Russian made vacuums on eBay that look like the above brands. Anyone know any back story on these machines?

I had the same only mine had a saddle type tool carrier and cordwinder. IIRC I think mine was a sister model Electro Hygiene. I had to look under the tool carrier to see the name. That nozzle is a beast and I believe it uses a full size Royal brushroll, and so quiet. I gifted mine to a friend...

Nice job! It's weird about the emptor..they usually look better than the machine.

Uh... I would be estatic if anyone thought of me and picked something up like that for me and I wouldn't mind paying for it considering what it is. I think $60.00 is a very fair price considering what it might/would go for on ebay. Enjoy it Joe!
