1987 Royal 886 - With Two Slightly Different Parts

Make no mistake: this is a 1987 Royal 886 upright (serial #G87A003106 = July 1987) but it has a 1975-86 Adjust-O-Rite plate and the bag from its predecessor, the 880.

The 886 would normally use a blue Scafitex bag with the "Royal Five" logo as having a light blue background for the crown logo and "QUALITY SINCE 1905" and a dark blue space for the written-five-times Royal name.

The Adjust-O-Rite plug would also have the words "Adjust" and "Rite" on the top half of the pop-out stub area, with the bottom half of the circle having a drawing of the brushroll and belt. Since 1988, a warning encircled the bottom half: CAUTION: MOVING PARTS - UNPLUG BEFORE OPENING.
