G-d! I would love to own that 1958 Kenmore Vanguard! Besides my love of vacuum cleaners, my other hobby is world expositions! I went to the New York World's Fair as a 5 year old and was lucky to experience Montreal's magical summer of Expo 67.
To have a vac that has a "world expo sticker" is mind boggling to me.......*sigh*.....one day I'll have a place big enough to surround myself with this stuff.....
As an aside.....I heard someone once say that my favourite company Eureka never really invented new things - they always just stole an idea and made it better. I always thought the Eureka "Vanguard" Upright (early 1970's) was a really cool name....now I know that Kenmore/Whirlpool beat them to it! :-(
