@caligula Very interesting indeed .

I’m looking for a model 3R from 1939 to complete my R series . Will pay top $$ for one . Thanks David

James Kirby submitted and patented a non-electric vacuum with a visual window (not the ezee) 1916-1918 please see a sketch of it. I just wonder if anyone knows the brand it was manufactured under. i don't believe it was the Vacuette as i have never seen one with a window. vital rand, apex...

That is amazing !

Here is a before and after of early Kirby Company /premier Ezee AKA grasshopper ,model N. This sweeper arrived at my door in a pretty bad shape ,all rusted inside and dented in a few places . I had to save it ❤️ more detailed pics will be available on my website January 15th .

Alex. Happy new year that’s wonderful . Thank you ! @tolivav , they really did go overboard with the jigsaw but I think it’s super cool , not practical tho ,

It would really be nice to meet other collectors in person , I wish I didn’t live on the other side of the country .

Thank you all for your kind words and merry Xmas . Kevin , that would be great . Restoring and polishing a vintage vacuum and bringing back to life is very rewarding .

Hi , this 1934 Kirby model C polished so nice I had to share here . Especially the brass belt cover , flawless! David INSTAGRAM: Collectingdust_kirby

Hi , what Kirby items do you have for sale ?

Kirbylux77 and ben The March 1983 manual still shows both the turbo brush and the hair clippers. My attachment box from 1984 has a redesigned portable handle . I might be wrong on this but I believe there was another version after the March 83 revised manual.. I’m still on the lookout :) so...

Hi Ben , thank you !

Thanks guys for your input . Do you know if there was a 1984 specific Manual for the heritage 84?

Who can tell me the differences between the 2 ? Thanks David Instagram : collectingdust_kirby

Thank you Jeff ! @dysonman ,those are awesome machines in your collection . It’s true, the Vacuette works a little better but I feel that neither really do a good job lol

Fantomfan57 Thank you . Here it is on the restored unit. :)

Happy Friday ! working on my 1920s Non electric Kwick Klean. Bag was all faded . Not anymore ! Kwick Klean was sold at Sears , it was a generic Vacuette model made by a subsidiary of the Scott and Fetzer co. Pics of complete restore next .
