This Westinghouse came from a find that my mother scored at an estate sale near my home town of Lansing Michigan. She got them to lower the price and got it for a song...

Beautiful. I love the color scheme. Kind of reminds me of saddle oxford shoes.

Alphonse,
I have parallel line disorder. No, Im just kidding....lol!! I just like a clean work area. It makes it less stressful to fix things when you have space around you. I see that you are in Detroit? You work for Banks? B&D? United or Bells?

Actually
Neither. I'm a semi retired builder. I'm familiar with all of those shops, especially banks. Most of my new vacs I buy are from Arbor Vac in A2. Your not that far from me, I actually live in Northville. Easier just to say Detroit.

Chad, does your mother take special orders? Two great finds! That Westy is actually a cute vacuum, if a vacuum can be cute!

Great Westinghouse!
Think it must be the last version of that style upright. Never saw one like that with disposable bags before. So nice of your Mom to find it and pick it up for you!

Another Westy that I have never seen.
I have one that I have never seen another one exactly like it. I like that one because it has the paper bag system.

Westinghose made some really nice looking uprights,
The 1955 One Stroke, which was similar to Singers Twin Fan, was a ugly duckling and as far as I can tell, it didn't sell too well, that is the only reason I can imagine why it was dropped and the older style was brought back, the oddball one stroke WAS sold for several more years as a Wards Signature????
