Electrolux Model E Automatic questions

Hi Alex
That's quite a long time to have such a fascination but quite a wholesome story haha. That's even more impressive that her husband gave it to you, nothing like fulfilling an almost life long dream. Mine started with a Kirby but unfortunately my grandmother has no plans of giving it up, but I fixed it for her anyway as it's just so good! Now that my mother has her Elecrolux sorted guess it's just me and Eureka now.

Hi Vimm:

Just read this.

Her name was Jannette, she lived next door to us, and was perhaps the most important person in my life. She was born in Pittsburg in 1904, and became a collage professor. In 1947, she and her husband moved to Connecticut and she became a 2nd grade school teacher. She had a way with children. We spent many hours together as I helped her vacuum the house as the years went by. She knew my love of that Electrolux. When I joined Electrolux in 1968 I tried to sell her a 1205. No way, she kept her LX! What I did not know was that she made it clear, that LX was to be willed to me.
