The Pennsylvania Haul!

[bvac6]

I am currently on my way home from Harrisburg, PA with a car full of vacs! When I'm able I'll post pics!

do you know Bob Kautzman? he's from Harrisburg

Ok, here they are! The first is the adorably small Duplex canister vacuum. I couldn't find any info or old ads relating to it. I love Premiers so I couldn't resist getting the 47. Some of these canisters are going to be tricky to get hoses for, especially the oddball Super Vac and Sweeper Vac Imperial. I would bet that the other hose lots in that auction probably had them!

Very nice!

What is on the bag on the AV1? It almost looked like a faded Kirby Omega bag patch in the listing.

johnnyb59c,

I've heard his name but I cant say Ive met him.

Hoover300,

It does indeed look a little like a Kirby patch. I'm not sure what color the bag was originally since its so faded. The patch has a faint GE on it.

Sweet buy!! You got some good machines from the auction. I won the Scott Fetzer Vacuette Electric. Still waiting on the shipping details.

Bob,

Great score, indeed! I see you got the 1985 Mercury (Royal) 606ME!
