Numatic collection

[hooverking]

Hi I have taken a few pictures of my Numatic collection that I thought members might like to see. These are a small part of the Numatics that I have collected over the years. If anyone would like some spares or parts or even a particular model I will be happy to help if I can I have over a forty year career seen just about every vacuum cleaner ever made.

Those look great! You also have the very elusive Wendy, which is certainly a rarity.

Would you mind posting a snap of Wendy on her own?

Many thanks!

Very nice Numatic collection you have there! But just a word of advice....it might be a good idea to add Scarborough, UK to your profile, instead of just Scarborough. Here in Ontario, Canada, there is a Scarborough, Ontario....it is a part of the mega-city we call Toronto. Just to avoid some confusion

Amazing to see al those little faces

How did all that start? Who named these? Wouldn't you love to know who Wendy,Henry, etc. really are?
THere were some creative people working there...like the other vac companies. They all had/have their crazy/creative people working there.

John, the original line up of James, Henry, Charles & George were all named after members of the British royal family.

Well, I certainly learned something

new today. How would 'we' have known that? Why was there never one named after "Betty"? Could you imagine them doing that for Elizabeth?????? Dear Lord!!!
