What a fantastic pair of the earliest Kirby's. You have done a wonderful job indeed. I agree with Les, these are truly a Kirby collectors dream. Thanks for posting!

Thank you ! Much appreciated I’ll try and upload more pictures of manuals and other c models soon . I want to share my collection of Kirby’s with with you all! I used to sell the model G4 door to door that’s how I got into old Kirbys bc we used to do trade ins .

These are stunning!

I immediately thought of Jim ( VacMadMan ) when I saw these. Very nice indeed! Curious to know how many of these you took on trade while selling G4's?
