Very cool Hans! Did it come with attachments? Are they the same as the full-size model?

excellent find, love it

No attachments..

Just a ratty dried up hose,black with a red tracer,rubber cuff on the wand end, simple 2 slot connector on the machine end.

Awesome little Sister Royal..for the child to help Mommy?

Beautiful and typically racy color from Royal. Even cute li'l rocket fin runner blades...

I wonder if it was Royal's answer to the conservative brown & tan GE TIDY and the green Premier Vac-Kit? For light duty and/or Apartment storage constraints.

Nice Find, Hans!

Think it may have been the first Royal Pony Tank! Like the colors too--it would match my 153 or 189 uprights or 157 hand vac. Congrats!
