[QUOTE="lesinutah, post: 441597, member: 3506"] [b]Bags[/b] The bags pre 1961 and older are open top. The material on open top bags are not the same material as closed top sanitronic bags. The sanitronic bags don't have screen printing. If you try to clean the bag the screen printing will flake off. That's pretty much how it is if you want original bags. The bag spring has an inch lip on the inside of the bag. You could patch it with that material. If you pinch the bag together using super glue or clothes adhesive that would fix the spring. If you have an old bag your lucky. If you have an old bag in great condition it's extremely rare. I don't like any bags Fromm 513-561. I have or had every bag but as good as yours maybe one a little better but you get the point. Get some stencils tape off the bag and use heavy duty paint. If you screen print your better of doing 10-20 bags. I'd buy the black corduroy open top Kirby bag. Either get an embroidery patch or paint it yourself. You won't see any 513-562 Kirby's selling for more than $100 unless original in pristine condition. It's up to you on how much you put into it. [/QUOTE]
