Old Kirbys and things

A trio of loveliness

Two of my favorite machines from my collection at home. It will be so nice to share with everyone, the third weekend in September at the Vacuum Collectors Convention at the Vacuum Museum in Rolla, MO. The theme this year is straight suction stick vacs. A $50 gift certificate to the winner of the contest.

We could see the lovely trio if you would move those Kirbys out of the way.(--just joking--)

It really does amaze me how little kirbys basic design has changed over the years really looking forward to their next model

Tom,

Those were beautiful!

But the rarest of all the gold-plated ones was perhaps the Kirby Dual Sanitronic 50 that Phyllis Diller owned.

The old 519 is an expert on dog hair. Kirby to the rescue.

Nice

509-512 and model C. I like the look of the DS80 too.

Thank you Les. so many people think I am stuck on rainbow, Kirby or Electrolux, or other brands. I like them all. No one could say I am “only“ about one brand. The brand makes absolutely no difference. I learned that a long time ago. Especially during pride month, I feel it’s very important to celebrate the diversity of our vacuum cleaners as well. I love them all, and they all love me.
