vacuum in tales from the darkside

[dryclean1]

Hey Fellow vacuumland friends,Does anyone remember the tales from the darkside episode with the villainous vacuum cleaner? It is an episode from 1988 titled "hush". If anyone is interested. Thanks Bill

Yes, I've seen that the vacuum cleaner eats everything that makes noise. One of my favorite tv series.

What kind of a machine do you think it was? And age of machine? Thanks for the reply! Bill

sorry I listed this again

Im sorry folks that I put this question on here again. I am still learning the ropes of an on line forum. I am really oldschool and a bit clumsy. My apologies! Bill

A short Video of Hush on Youtube.

There is a video, of the tales of the dark side, called Hush. It does show the vacuum.

That 1980s VHS clarity!


 


Going off the position of the carry-handle alone, I'm going to say this is an older, modified Royal-Aire Canister, or even an older G-E canister. It can't be an Electrolux XXX since this vacuum's strap connects back into the vacuum, and not the switch.Filtex canisters had no carry handle.


 


Also, notice the front of the canister. It has a distinctive bell shape to it, another feature seen on Royal.


 


Compare the vacuum to this Royal-Aire canister. Thanks to Hygiene903 for the photo:
