When I first saw the topic I thought it was some kind of gas-saving device... Then I saw the pics and realized its what, across the pond, we call weedwhackers. Congrats! They're pretty fun to use, just for trim jobs.

I save up my pop cans for a year and take them to a recycling plant. Every year around July they have an "extra 10 cents a pound" coupon. I can get a good $60 from one pickup load. One of my friends melted a bunch of pennies (pre 1987, th ones that are pure copper)with a blowtorch into a solid...

Oh. Didn't see that. I really appreciate that, Robert. Thank you.

Under "upgraded days" on my profile, it appear "843". What is going on here?

The logo stayed generally the same from the 500 series to the classic series. Ten when the Generations came out it got quite simplistic. (Oh the gripes I have about that logo.) I have to say, their '70's through '80s logo was by far the best.

I have around 30, give or take. I really can't have any more, having that many scums around really bugs my household...but at least they let me have and keep this hobby, which I'm grateful for.

It is fairly new...it was on a week ago. I think it was 99.

Ill see if I can find one. I was watching it on the teevee.

I must have not cycled through all the different ones...okay.

I see you don't have any Kirby's for the animations. Suppose if I took a high-res picture of my D50, would you add it?

I was watching a rerun of American Restoration, and they had a man being in an old Rexair to be restored. He said it was used by the army, and only about eight remained in the world. Anyone for anymore info on this?

Turquoise has got to be my favorite out of all the bright colors that were popular in the 1950's. Eccellent picture.

Wow. Junior sounds great. You know, cause its a vacuum, and were juniors-ah, forget it. :)

A great find and it looks like new now!

The dark purple looks neat. Silver is my second choice. I like the "Other cool stuff" personally, for the name.

Got to be te tradition for me also...there's just SOMETHIBG so elegant an regal to the blue against silver. The g5 is a close second.

Thank you!

The only Oreck I own is a 2600...not the worst vacuum I've ever seen, but not real great.

So I was wondering about...how long exactly has Oreck been around? What was their first model? What about some more of their early vacuums? And pics would be AWESOME. Thanks!

I've always loved Lewyts, especially the "trash can" models. My grandmother has a 44 that hasn't been used in at least ten years....works like a charm, but missing the original hose.
