Reply #10,
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that typewriter setup! wouldn't have it any other way (Except my machine has Electric-Assist, I was just using it about an hour ago for homework, my class loves it!)! BUT.....step up and get a REAL rotary dial phone! that fridge and TV too.....it's only a matter of time before the neighbors think they just drove by a warp in time!

I'm not ...
... normally a fan of blue living rooms because they feel too "cold" to me, but with that shade, and with your liberal use of browns, you've done a beautiful job of creating a "cool" environment with just enough warmth to make it comfortable for people like myself who prefer "warm" colors.

Thanks
yea I try to. After all, I am an interior designer lol. Actually though, what looks like brown on the ceiling is actually a gold-leaf faux finish. It doesn't photograph well though.

Here is my Numatic NV250 in pretty bad condition. I believe this one is from 1977, but I cannot confirm that as there is no serial number present.

Here's the Dial-A-Matic, in near-mint condition. I have the hose and the manual but that's it right now. If anyone has a set of tools they'd be willing to part with, I'd be very interested.

Austin,
We came across the same vacuum at almost the same time. I'd like to come across some more Convertibles again, but I don't see them very often. The ones on ebay are overprices and screwed up.

Yes it looks like we did! I love mine, the color is great & it runs like new. You can definitely tell that my Model 66 is the superior model though, it picks up a little better and it's a lot quieter. And yes, from what I can tell, most of the vintage vacs on eBay are overpriced.

Brandon, your NV250 looks to be from around 1985-1990. What's the wattage rating of the motor?
