    Ebay Situation

    Charles,   I know exactly how you feel. I've been hurt badly in the past, and like you I've learned that what others think of me is none of my business. It's not easy but it works. I find myself offended on these pages by those who are quick to speak poorly of others and to be hateful and...

    1959's The New Look in Vacuum Cleaners

    The 1960's just Exploded

    D-T,   That is most definitely not a toy. It is a savings bank to encourage thrift and savings toward ones very own Electrolux cleaning system.   Tom
