His Kirbys!

He also has a 1978 Classic III. The pristine pre-1978 cloth bag I saw on it was there since when he first found it, the original 1978 cloth bag was ratty.

In the Garage...

A multitude of Kirbys and Royals waiting to be restored and/or sold! Among them are several heavy-duty commercials from the '70s-'80s!

<span style="font-family: helvetica;">Thanks, Toastermike. A great collection. I especially like seeing the Eureka R and M models. Not all that many R's were around, it seems.</span>
