So I really, really wasn't sure what forum to put this in. I figured since most of my sweepers are "vintage" by the sites guidelines I would post if in here. Here goes.
This is missing a few vacs. Mainly ones that were in the shop being repaired. These are the Sanitaire SC888, Oreck XL(I have forgotten the model number. I no longer own it.), The first Kirby classic, a Hoover Windtunnel, Panasonic Canister, Kirby tradition, and Panasonic performance plus.

Any questions and comments would be appreciated!

The rest of my collection that's not pictured should be named under my profile. Here's a better pic of the uprights:

<span style="font-family: helvetica; color: #0000ff;">Hi, Sam, </span>

<span style="font-family: helvetica;">Nice collection--thanks for posting the photo. What got my attention the most was the brown Kirby which resembles the one my parents had purchased sometime in the '60s.  They had it rebuilt sometime in the late '70s or early '80s, so the bag was replaced which had a different logo.  I can't tell if the red one (4th from the left) is a Kirby or Hoover. If it's the latter it may be the same model that my aunt and uncle owned--also purchased during the '60s or possibly the late '50s. Sadly, both sweepers were eventually sold after replacements were procured.  Anyway, your photo brought back some fond memories. Thanks again. </span>

The red one with a plaid bag is a Kirby. Classic 3 to be exact. Everything original and all attachments too!
The very last one, with the reddish brown bag, is a Hoover 825. Not the original bag for that machine, but at least it's an original Hoover bag.
 
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva;">Thanks for the clarification, Sam. </span>
