a metal based, Sanitaire 623B, in this condition!
I have yet to touch it and i hardly need to.
It came right in the house, although the only partially full F&G bag was tossed.

Just the other day i was marveling at the perfect functionality and utility of the basic Eureka Boss 1934b/Sanitaire S639 while using one.

The vacuum gods rewarded me today for the cost of a Starbucks Venti Latte ;-][this post was last edited: 1/7/2015-18:33]

That is lovely and in really nice condition too. I really must get a Older model Sanitaire or Eureka and ship one over to have in my collection.

They look like really great machines.

Gsheen,

.
The standard Sanitaire is the Pepsi to a Hoover Convertible's Coke.
They each have their fans (see what i did there? "fans"..har har) but are far more the same than different overall.
If you ever make it to Southern California I'll give you one. [this post was last edited: 1/7/2015-18:36]

Lovely find! Great simple, sweet sounding machine.

Pre-1974 vintage, going by the reference to Eureka Williams Company on the nameplate.
