Little Giant Blackheart, I remember using one of those like the one you showed. The teachers were getting their erasers cleaned for free, but we kids didn’t realize it, we were just happy to get out of class for a few minutes!!

I want to know more..... About that massive central attic fan!! That thing is a monster! Plus, what’s the story on that little portable tv up there next to it??

Hoover 28 in KY That’s a FANTASTIC find! You don’t hardly see the older vacs anymore in stores or flea markets, or even estate sales it seems! I’m in Central/Eastern KY (think Morehead/Mt. Sterling area), if you’re close to me and want it looked at! Just let me know! I think there’s an...

Hi Tom! First off, welcome to the group! You'll find a WEALTH of knowledge among the members here. I see you have yourself a Super J to restore. Good choice! The first vacuum I would call "mine" was a Super J, so those are near and dear to me! I don't have any of the diagrams that you're...

Seller Fan-of-fans, I am inclined to think the OP may be the seller of the Vac. They are located in Milford, OH from what their profile says, and the machine’s location was Milford......I may be wrong, but occasionally 2+2=4 LOL!!! 😄

Shipping Costs May very well be what keeps potential buyers at bay. It’s only one state over from me and shipping sits at $60! I can’t imagine what it would charge someone out on the west coast or panhandle states....I’d LOVE to have it, but I have to be selective where I spend my money these...

Vacuumland Info Yes, he told me that he had found my information on VL....I don’t really mind, but truthfully I had forgotten about putting my email info out there it’s been so many years! Guess I better check out my own profile occasionally! LOL!!

Clarence Price He emailed me as well. I actually answered him back and ended up talking to him on the phone for about half an hour. He had a small business fixing vacs up and selling them in a peddlers mall. They started raising their prices/fees on him and he pulled his machines out and...

Garrett I hope you end up getting that! I really like the retro look of those. I almost had one once and something happened and the seller cancelled the auction and decided not to sell it. Go figure! Let us know if you end up with it!! Steve

Steve I looked at Kenny's link....if you scroll down to the comments, someone asked if these would fit a Diamond Jubilee, and the answer was Yes.... Hope that helps! Steve

Kevin That's correct! We created this years ago, when my daughter was like 6 years old (she will be 10 at the end of this month). She absolutely loved it, and that old vac is still going strong all these years later. Most people liked it, but I do recall there were some that didn't seem to...

Looks fantastic! I’m one of the few that doesn’t mind deviating from the factory colors of a vacuum! I took a Golden Jubilee model 1205 Electrolux that was rusted and in horrible shape and let my daughter pick out the colors.....unique, but she is proud of it, and it’s something we did...

Do I hate Hoover? In short no. I can’t hate something that LITERALLY saved my life once, and a Hoover Convertible Elite did just that! Now don’t get me wrong, this stuff with a Hoover badge on it now certainly isn’t the quality Hoover products that was produced a few decades ago. I...

Wow! I like the look of it! Very impressive!!

Chad You have an absolutely beautiful machine, and I can easily see you’ve spent a lot of time and resources getting it back in good condition. I’d be interested in it, but the shipping price is just too cost prohibitive to KY. If I remember right there was only a $10 price difference between...

Johnny Mathis Sorry John, I’m not sure where my Johnny Mathis album is at the moment.....BUT, how about some old Blue Eyes instead? Too hot to turn the oven on right now to bake cookies, but maybe later this evening I’ll whip up a batch! LOL! I’ve heard about the club’s CE, in fact, I’ve...

Thank you all! I’ve been giddy with excitement ever since I paid for the machine and made it officially mine.....so today, I decided to get them all together and take a “family” photo or two....😊

Thanks John! These machines are my “Holy Grail” machines, so running across one in the wild (eBay) is something that doesn’t happen often....in fact, last time I saw one was 8 years ago when I found and bought my 1st CE! Having three of them in my collection is something I wouldn’t allow...

But it feels like December 25th to me! The UPS man just dropped off a package that has absolutely made my week......maybe even my month!! My spectacular eBay find that I was so excited about last week has arrived! I just put a brand new bag in it, plugged her in, and that motor purrs like a...

Some of you may recall me making a post several weeks ago looking for an Electrolux Hospital G vacuum your add to my collection. Not too unexpectedly, that was a complete bust. There were a few suggestions as to where I might find one, but nothing solid, and it never came to fruition. I’d be...
