Kent Baby Twin Vacuna

Anyone ever see one? Chris(Hoover28 on here) picked this up for me at an antique shop and I bought it off him. Can't wait to get it running. I remember seeing this referenced somewhere but the website is gone now.

Very strange vacuum. Is there a filter or bag that goes on the fan discharge opening?

 

[hoover300]

That is the blower exhaust. It has a bag inside

Cool!!

That is so very cool! What a fun project. I have never seen one. I would have loved to see the illustrations on it when it was new.

Oh wow! If that is the "baby" one can only imagine what the first one was like!

This looks a lot like a one made by Regina....forgot the model letter.

Vacuna Jumbo

There's a Vacuna Jumbo at the Stark's Vacuum museum in Oregon. This thing is absolutely massive and is basically the size of a large Shop Vac.

There was an electric Regina model C as well as something from Western Electric. The clean air uprights were a small competitive market in the 10s lol
