After seeing Phillip's DVD collection. I would like to start one of my own. We watched the vacuum scene from Ernest Goes to School.

The Don Clark

setup is so much fun to use. I didn't realize that these Eureka uprights (power nozzle) had both metal and plastic based versions. I just can't get over how much fun we had and I'm still thinking about the digging adventure the four of us went on. Thanks again, Phillip for hosting!

The old man Mr Kennedy also collected vintage condom machines and their content. His drand daughter Victoria gave us all a parting gift. A box of vintage comical rubbers. There were 100s of these machines all over the house and store.

The lady in the pic is Victoria the vac shop owners grand daughter.
Shaylee was so disappointed that she had to work all weekend and couldn't dig with us. Victoria has contacted us and asked if we can assist her with going through all the rest of it and help her sell it all.

Victoria was nice and very pleasant and had a lot of stories about her grandfather and his dealings with people as a Kirby Salesman. I loved using the Regina Brush and Beat. Pretty powerful for such a small vac. I just wanted to post a full picture of the vacuum.

Looks like you guys had a great time! Old man Mr Kennedy appears to have been quite the character! Collecting vacuums and condom machines?!

By the way love the living room setup!

 

[kirbyvertibles]

Thanks, I'm very pleased with the living room. It's not quite finished yet. That carpet is new old stock from 1972!!!! An older lady still had it after all these years and gave it to me but I paid a good amount to have it laid lol

 

[kirbyvertibles]

Thank you Kenny, I don't know why the pics you sent only posed half size.

It looks like everyone had an awesome time! As you guys know, I'm not a digger, but could've stayed back with Sonya and Shaylee and whipped up some vittles!
