    1974 American Lincoln Super Sweep

    Super Sweep Details My AL has a metal fan instead of the plastic. Mine also has the F and G setup, but I don’t have any bags for it. In the past I just put on a regular F and G bag. As for the question of if I will be getting rid of it... This machine will be staying in my collection as a...

    A Rarity You Don’t See Often

    And once again, my second post for the weekend! Thankfully, all this quarantining has allowed me to get out some of my favorites in my collection again. My next post is about a dream machine that took me years to find. This particular machine is an Electrolux Model G, BUT, not any model G! This...

    1974 American Lincoln Super Sweep

    Good evening fellow Vacuumlanders! Tonight I will be posting a couple pieces from my collection that haven’t been out or posted on here yet. The first I have to show is my 1974 Kirby-made American Lincoln Super Sweep! Being that these machines have been talked about more recently, I thought that...

    The Viking Vibra-Beat Cordaway Model V1844 😊

    Very cool! Very nice to see an Viking Empress 2! I myself have 2 Vikings. These both came from our own Doug Smith from Canada. Mine are essentially the Empress and the Mobilaire. I just love the details of these machines! On my Empress says “Superb” in front of the hose port and on the lid...

    In Search of Lewyt Big Wheels!

    Good day to all! In lieu of my recent post about my recent Lewyt finds, I'm now searching for Lewyt Big Wheel machines. I currently have a 111, an 88, and a 93, but I am looking for a model 120, 121, 77, 107, 90, and 105. If you have one of these models and you wouldn't mind parting with it, I'd...

    A Tale of Two Lewyts

    Many thanks! I just had to tell the story about these two machines because they're both very much dream machines to me. With many machines in my collection, I treasure both the stories as well as the machines themselves. We don't see very many Lewyts anymore and after reading the stories from...

    A Tale of Two Lewyts

    The “Zappers” The model 111 as well as the model 121 were both the zapper models. It was really unfortunate that this design didn’t work. The 111 also had fatter tires than the other straight suction models.

    A Tale of Two Lewyts

    Thank you everyone! I appreciate the kind words on the Lewyts! These machines have been a dream come true for myself and my collection. It would be amazing to make the 111 complete with its power nozzle, but I’m happy to have another important piece of vacuum cleaner history. I have been doing...

    A Tale of Two Lewyts

    Well everyone, to start off, it truly has been the best of times rather than the worst of times for my collection lately. Today I have for your viewing pleasure, two siblings if you will, born from the Lewyt company. Of these two, one is the rarely seen Lewyt Model 111 Electronic with the other...
