Classic, Rebuild at Kirby! Bud I had one done at Kirby (a 1CR Classic). It came back with everything org. in color except the bag. It was black. I had sent it with a very, nice like new org. Gold Bag. They put the new black one on and very kindly sent the org. bag back with the rebuilt...

Elux/Areus I have to agree with Dan as the last word. Areus electrolus, uprights are a great machine for power and long term use. I have a used Discovery, like my Aunt had brand new back in 1986 too. I just keeps on going. Plus the Side kick is so great for the car, steps and upholstery...

Burgandy Eureka's They were the first ESP, 6.5 Amp. motor Eurekas introduced in 1979. When I was a wholesales rep. for Eureka in Columbus, Ohio and sourthern Ohio. In my mind, at the time, it was the Very Best Upright Vacuum since the Hoover 28 and 29. Other than a Kirby of course ! I...

Hoover 65 and 66 Justin I have to say, my feelings are beginning to be NOT appreciated at all in our honest business deal.  Being a part of this group of collectors and friends means that I gave you a real advantage over other collectors.  Guys I have been friends with over the years.  ...

Hoover 65 and 66 Justin I am so happy that you got my 65 and 66 from my collection.   It is a good feeling for me to know that you do appreciate them so very much.  Hope you can share a picture one day soon, with everyone.  So they can share your happiness visually as well as your...

Does Betty Crocker live there too ?? Looking at the vacuums was awsome, plus seeing them in the 50's kitchen with the 50's stove.  Does  the stove have a "deep Well" cooker in it ?? Mom used to put a roast or a chicken the deep well cooker on our old Fridigaire on Sunday morning. So when we...

I'm all for Kirby !! If Kirby would go with Charlies ideas and Hans theroy of going back to a smaller, more powerful cleaner. Like a dual 50 or 80, with a disposable bag.   It would blow the market right open.  I recently noticed that with the world market line up of Dysons at the Big Box...

D-272 Mark Thanks for sharing, yes, it is not a usual find. So it is a great find with all of the attachments. I had one back in the 80's, when I had my vacuum sales and service. Never ran, as the armature was burned up. I have another now, that I found with in the past decade. Then someone...

apex blue upright ! OH How I would love to have one of those as my last Vac to play with. A neighbor had one back in 54/55. That had been her mothers. She ran it every day (2 small kids to clean up after). I would bearly hear that machine running and I would go across the street to visit ...

Brandon ! It's the pciture. the metal is sort of pitted like. So I'm assuming it would take some work to bring it back. Probably from dampness. but the motor is really amazing at how smooth and powerful it runs. Even still has the cloth cord on it. So it would be a great piece for a...

Eureka Model 9 Thanks For giving me an I D on it. Guess it's not a big interest vacuum with the current members. Have NOT heard a word from anyone. Wish I was still maintaining my my collection. It would have been a great addition. No place to have it now. Hate to see it just fade...

hey gang, I had a phone call from a local gentleman. Who managed his Aunts 1920's Eureka upright. That he remembers her using when he was a kid in the 1950's. It has been in storage all of these years since her passing in 1971. He would like to see it go to a collector who would display it...

Lux upright 1451 Doug, great picture. I had one of those back in 1989, with the attachments. If I recall, you had to open the top, like replacing the paper bag. Then you attached an adapter of some type. Am I remembering correctly ?? Great up right, real beast. With wands and the combo...

Compact Sales in the Lake Erie Region ! Having grown up 60 miles East of Cleveland. Kirbys were all the big bang along Lake Erie, East and West of Cleveland. In the early 50's. But before that in N E Ohio, being so close to Erie Pa. there were basicly tons of Lux XXX pre and then post WW II...

Early 90 Royals ! They were quit a line up of vacuums to select from. I lived in an efficenty apt. for one year with one small rug in front of my sofa. So I bought a new broom vac. I love that little vacuum. Still have it in storage at my son's home. suppose I will consider giving it up...

Pete's tan and Brown Panasonic ! I had one just like it, bought used in the early/mid 90's. It was great, easy to use. Plus the hose just plugged in the back and you could clean anything, anywhere any time. It was and is still going. My daughter has it in her basement rec room. That room...

Awesome Charles If you were to get the Model E back into your life. You would never have to plead or beg for another vacuum the rest of your life. It would be the Angel on the tree of Vacuums. LOL ! My buddy that I played with, lived across the street from me. His parents had a lux E in...
