<span style="font-family: helvetica;">And, for $1,200, you don't even get to SEE the thing! I predict that'll sit around for two or three eons until he finally gives up.</span>

<span style="font-family: helvetica;">Yikes! Lots of stuff! I wish I could be there. Working that weekend. Also, no room for more vacuums. Dang it. Best of luck. I hope you sell it ALL.</span>

<span style="font-family: helvetica;">This was very well done. I think it would make a good feature-length film, also. Nice shots of the Electrolux, and other vacuums and parts.</span>

<span style="font-family: helvetica;">Good luck tomorrow. That's a gorgeous Green Goddess.</span>

<span style="font-family: helvetica;">Good luck tomorrow, Charles. It's a beautiful vacuum.</span>

<span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Wow, it looks beautiful. That was a lot of work. Bravo for such a great job!</span>

<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Hi Gareth,</span>   <span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Actually, the Model 26 had the switch in the handle. The pedal you see is the handle release pedal.</span>

"The current information supplied by Sears is the just t <span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">That's correct. I believe, back in the 30's and 40's, Sears was numbering vacuum cleaner models beginning with 116. It's just a prefix they used for vacuums. There were some...

<span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I think that switch on the motor housing is to switch on the headlight power. Cadillac uprights were known for that. But, you're saying that there is no socket to attach a bulb to?</span>

<span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Holy crap, Fred!</span>

<span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Yes, you are missed, Mr. Crevicetool.</span>

<span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">This booklet, produced at about the time of the Model 541 Hoover, is a very rare item. This is only the 2nd time I have seen it for sale. I have one, and I cherish it. This would make a fine addition to a serious collector's paper...

<span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">If you're standing right in front of it (facing the headlight), it will SORT OF follow you forward. But, you're right, it mostly gets dragged sideways.</span>

<span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Gorgeous, Tyler!</span>

<span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">What a nice thing for Charlie to do. Such a great guy. BTW, Happy belated birthday, Rick! What a great gift.</span>

<span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I agree with you Brian. I think Eureka had a much better disposable bag than Hoover did. It really worked well, though it was a simple design.</span>

<span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">The Hoover Model 150 was truly one of a kind. Though it borrowed a few features from prior Dreyfuss Hoovers, there were so many unique things about it, as Charlie has listed. Charlie, I had never seen a conversion kit for the 150...

<span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Have fun, Johnny.</span>

<span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I remember Jim from the 2001 Convention, and from a mini-meet I went to in Washington several years ago.</span>   <span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">May he rest in peace.</span>

<span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I saw Mark last at the Milwaukee VCCC convention. He seemed like a very kind man and a gentleman. He had been a collector for a long time.  </span>
