    Yeah!!!!! We've Hit 200!

    and we would not have hit 200 if it were not for you Fred and I say we owe the proprietor of the Tarantula Arms a big round of applause for taking time away from his busy schedule to do what he does for us, after all running a place like the Arms must be a very hairy job. PATRICK COFFEY

By the start of the 1960's I think the canned ham Eurekas and vacuums built like them as were considered cannister vacuums. Then by the start of...
