These were found at two different Goodwill stores within one hour.

I had admired this model in someones collection before. Supremacy!

[swingette]

Notice the markings for rug adjustment and handle release.

I wonder just how common these cleaners were?

Thanks for watching!

Nice Finds, David!

I think the Dual-Voltage machines were generally sold to Military families who would go back and forth overseas... I know Tom Anderson has one of those cleaners.

The Supremacy Decade-80 sure is pretty!

Yay for good days at GoodWill!

Hey...nice Hoover cleaners. The burgundy Supremacy was sold through vac shops and they turn up once in awhile around here. I do have the Dual Voltage too. Odd thing...mine is the same model number but my serial number is 069300001268. Which means that mine was built earlier but with a higher serial number. Yours is built later but with a lower number??? Any ideas out there in Vacuumland?

David, those are real eye poppers! Especially the dual-voltage one. It's such a restful shade of blue grey.

Thanks for the comments, guys.

OMG that is a stunning brochure, Jeff. The u4719 looks fabulous with that black-painted handle. I usually hate that hood shape, but this one looks really good.
