Well done, Alex! http://vacuum-cleaner-advisor.com

With just a little Pic 'N' Span another fine Kirby is saved from the trash bin!

Well, I was just at the local yokel Kirby store the other day and what should I find to my horror?! You guessed it -- Some evil doer from the deepest, darkest part of Tartarus had somehow managed to smash the Vac-u-ette handgrip to this vicinity's Kirby Grand Dragon ( AKA ) Head Honcho, The Big...

I found this Dyson DC24 on the way of being EOL! After a little spick and span, it makes quite a stunning show piece!

#1. The one in the middle!

Kirby utopia has been discovered, and I must say with all honesty, it was a beautiful sight. It was like I lived my whole life off of charity, and then everything turned to gold when I walked through those wondrous doors. Sadly,  I was only able to take a few snapshots before my camera shorted...

Alex, I just want to be the first to welcome you to the 20th century....Heeheeheehee!!!    

I found these Italian shears, I think they could be early twentieth century - not entirely sure, though, but really nicely done and quite decorative.  

It's time for the DoubleWhammy, Sammy! This is a working (1940s) Bakelite Zenith radio, and if you guessed: I found it right on top of the Victor Victrola...you just won a cigar! I really shouldn't have turned it on, though, because these types usually have a metal Dielectric Capacitor. What...

You'll never guess.

This is how a 1919 Kirby Wireless Vacuette bag attaches.

Just kidding, and it's really a Kirby 1-C with a early C belt cap. It looks like they traded-up with a rarer cap, not bad, not bad at all.

This is a 1915 Frantz premier toy vacuum advertisement. Believe you me I could not believe I got my hands on this.

Look what I almost tripped over on the other day...just about the biggest Eureka I've ever seen. It looked like it just materialized from the purple haze of the 1970's - what a oversized advertisement...spectacular!

Presenting the 1927 Eureka model 10 with accessories. Sadly, I got this with a burned up armature, and pretty much the whole machine was raised to the ground - it was deplorable! But, I must add most fortuitously I had an armature from a model 9 in my possession, which proved to be...

These two aluminum beauties were made in 1934, and coming this August Barbara Eden will turn 79 years young. I must say she's just like a Kirby...still going strong!
