[markus79]

Hi, someone asked about Santos vacuum cleaner. I was last week in Stockholm Technical Museum and I took a few pictures on old Electrolux vacuums and there was also Santos which was "a role model" for Electrolux model 1 vacuum.

Hi Markus,

I am the one who inquired about the Santos cleaner, so thank you for responding with information and pics!

Very interesting information. Besides the booklet you purchased is there one with all the Electrolux models?

On another thread, someone had questioned whether there was a Model !V. I wonder if you recall seeing one?

Thanks again for posting and enjoy your weekend, too.
