Thanks so much! I would like to thank Jeff for sending me a copy of page 526 from the 1935 Sears catalog showing the Kenmore Deluxe. This will be wonderful to add to my records. Something interesting I noticed was the Kenmore model 19 looks just like my Apollo. If I'm not mistaken the...

Looking good! Kyle, It's looking good so far! I'm sure it will look fantastic when your done. Jim

very nice What a wonderful find! The Kirby utility is one of my dream machines that I hope to find and ad to my collection someday. Congratulations!! Jim

Anna is all done Again I got to say how lucky I was to get this Kenmore Deluxe. Everything on this old Kenmore is original except for the two rivets in the front holding the bumper in place. The bag cleaned up beautifully and is in like new condition. Anna is a great addition to my collection...

Fantastic Kyle, Wonderful work top notch!! Jim

Thanks Kevin, Thanks so much for all your kind comments. Jim

some before and after's I still need to finish the handle and bag, but here is a few before and after's. I'll post more when she's done. Jim

Nice bag I really got lucky with this one. The bag is in wonderful condition with no holes or dry rot. This bag should wash up nicely and hopefully bring back some of the color.

Thanks Jeff, Thanks so much for taking the time to do that I do appreciate it. I'll make note of it for my records. I thought the Kenmore Imperial and Automatic came out in 1935. This looked to be an older model to me so that is all good to know thanks again Jeff. Jim

She's coming along. Kirbylux77, Here are some pictures of what you asked for and a few more of her progress. Picture #1 are two Kenmore brushrolls the one on top is from a Kenmore I bought for parts and is made of wood the bottom one is from the Deluxe and is made of metal. Jim

congrats!! Robert, WOW!! What a wonderful find indeed! To find one complete is amazing. I would love to find a handle grip for mine, but there's not much chance of that happening. You have hit the vacuum lottery. Jim

Thanks so much! Thank you kirbylux77, and Hoover300, For all the wonderful info and feedback. I am on the right track. Thank you again! This is my 3rd Kenmore and will look great next to my Kenmore Automatic, and my Kenmore Imperial. I hope to find a Kenmore deluxe with the light someday. Jim

I'm not sure What to think about the finish on this old Kenmore. In the seller's picture #1 the finish doesn't look as dark as my pictures. The finish in picture #2 and #3 you can see on the sides of the motor housing, handle fork, and nozzle the aluminum showing. The grey coloring is only on...

It's been a good day I decided to get started on this old Kenmore today. I cleaned all of this in my kitchen sink with soap and water some steel wool, and a little elbow grease. I haven't done any sanding or polishing yet. I am very pleased with the overall condition of this Kenmore. The...

address huskyvacs, You can give me your address here in a private message and I'll send it out. Jim

That would be great! Tom, Thanks that would be great. I hope we do meet some day. I would love to see the museum and have the opportunity to meet you. I have an original Air-Way paper bag in my Green Goddess, but not my 1929 Air-Way. I used a hoover type C bag that works well. Jim

washing I have washed these bags with success, but it depends on the overall condition of the bag. If it's to fragile or rotting out, I would shy away from it. If it's still in good condition I gently hand wash the bags and hang to dry. I turn it inside out and use a garden hose outside to...

huskyvacs, That is a replacement switch. It looks like the original switch bracket is there at the top cord hook. It just so happens that I have an extra original switch with the bracket that I would be more than happy to send you. also the cord should be all cloth as well. Picture 2 is my 1929...

yep huskyvacs, Yes that is one of the earlier model Airway's I don't see the power switch on that one. Jim
