Electrolux from old house attic

[lynn]

I found this old electrolux in the same old house attic I found my 454 Constellation. No attachments or hose :-(((( We even searched in between all the attic floor joists to see if any attachments had fallen down there lol. Anyway, it's filthy, but I wanted to share. Any knowledge about it would be greatly appreciated! (I had previously posted this to an existing Kirby thread by mistake)

xxx 1952

I researched on this forum and it looks like it's a 1952 XXX. The leatherette looks grey instead of blue when I cleaned a spot. It's all factory - no repainted areas. Are the attachments and hose hard to come by? Please let me know if there's any other info I might be interested in!

You can get hoses and attachments easy! Ebay always has them for sale. I even buy hoses at my local vacuum store.
