I apparently have a favorite Eureka design

Awesome collection! The "Walker" hood design is my favorite, too. According to advertising it originated in 1947 with the sepia two tone S-246 (Supreme 2-speed) and D-360 (Deluxe w/headlight). According to the 1972 photo line you recently posted the pancake hood debuted in 1972 with the Moss Green/Queen Anne Gold/Chrome Finish 2042/2052/2072/2074/2082/2092 line.

I like how Eureka - from the '60s to the '80s - most often used Fawn Beige for the hood paint and accented it with secondary colors on the handle grips, bags & bumpers.

Eureka advertising items are rare, so you're fortunate to have the floor mat and in such good condition. Hopefully you'll be able to obtain other Eureka memorabilia, too.

What are the model numbers of your collection? How extensive do you want it to become, or are you going to keep it limited to what you have?
