This belonged to my kindergarten teacher, Mrs Vera Mitchum, it was bought October 10 1962, during the Cuban missle crisis, I purchased it at her estate sale about 11 or 12 years ago, Today I decided to re pack the bearings as it was getting a little noisy, both bearings cleaned up like new and a re packing with lubriplate and they were good as new, the 4750 Lamb motor was dated 2-62 .

It really!

Has been well cared for, I got her some bags about 15 years ago when she could no longer find them, she also had a Kirby Sanitronic she bought about the same time.

Oh Yeah

Its a model 910, I also knew Mr Stamey Lefler, he very kindly put up with me as a kid, I went there often, if he was real busy, he would say ,Son, I dont have time to talk today, but come back in a day or two and I will, He was always very helpful explaining repairs etc to me.
