"putting it on Ebay"?--Or maybe in the dumpster!I wonder which would be easier??Everything in my old building WILL BE GONE starting with warmer weather!If collectors don't want to collect my local scrap guys WILL!!
"send pics"?--Of the 99 other things I need to do today and the 1000 things I need to do this weekend that is NOT one of them.And if it was and I did it would look like----the above picture!
"what are the measurements"?--They would be exactly what you would expect from seeing it in the video with other well known toy vacs!

Hey Jimmy, why don’t you consider bringing it to the Vacuum Collectors Convention in May? We could all get a look at it. It must be extremely rare and valuable. Wonder how much you could get for it on eBay. More than $200. do you think? You know the more rare it is, the more they pay.

@ Dysonman1
I think he is just like those people on youtube that destroy perfectly working vacuums for fun. He takes joy in bragging about how many valuable and collectible vacuums he has that he throws out every day just to spite people. There is thrift stores, storage units, putting them on the road with "FREE" on them, etc to move vacuums locally other than throwing them out. Putting ads in the newspaper and in community bulletin boards, advertising free vacuums on Facebook, would do a great deal. He could even put them in a storage unit and have the key available. People aren't going to just drop everything and drive 10+ states away in 2 days to pick up vacuums at the drop of a hat. There's no need to be so rude to someone asking for help.

Tom,
"bring to convention"?--I can rarely go places I want to within 50-100 miles much less 500-1000.
"how much--on EBay"?--If the only dependable,experienced EBay seller I could find in the area to work with had not died I might be able to find out about this and 10-40 items a week.
"--$200--"--That would get the above toy,a Suzy Homemaker,a toy Dirt Devil,a real DD,a toy Eureka,a real Eureka & more & more here.
huskyvacs,
"destroy--for fun"--WRONG!I much prefer to keep the good ones running.My most recent repair this week was a new fan on a Decade 80 dirt cup that the customer loved.
"take joy--in bragging"--Again WRONG!I am only stating facts of what is here needing to go to new homes.I might 'take joy'in finding a vintage vac and completing it with original attachments,parts,bag package,owners manual,box,etc as I can do in many cases.(Not brag,just facts.)I might 'take joy'in one of my vacs finding a new home(at prices starting at $0-$20).I might 'take joy'in having an empty building to be rid of along with utility payments,etc.The vacs I do dumpster or recycle are recent Chinese plastic vacs with major problems in most every case.
"--thrift stores--"etc.,etc.--Do you really think a local thrift store or advertising wants a 1925 Eureka,1935 Hoover,1952 Lewyt,1957 Westinghouse,1960 AirWay,1964 Shetland,1966 Sunbeam,1970 Kenmore,& MORE & ETC??
"--storage unit--"--Who pays the fee and then has the time,trouble and distance to deal with?
"--rude--"If so I am sorry.I would mention that when I seemed to be the only one who knew what this was(again,not brag,just facts)Tom noticed that the endless questions might tend to "bug him".

I remember secretly wanting a Suzy Homemaker toy vacuum cleaner as a little boy growing up in Montreal in the 1960’s. It was even the same light blue as our beautiful Eureka Super Automatic 260!!! And had blue attachments too!
But I was afraid to say anything to my parents.... :-(

Yes, I learned from my friends here at Vacuumland that I was not the only little boy fascinated by vacuum cleaners! Me and hundreds of others like me. We should have all gone to the same summer camp to meet each other in those days... we would have had such a great time together.

Steph,
"--got an EBay account?"--No,nor do I have the time to be involved in the whole process.
"dysonman1'-Why would you ask Tom to ask me and then tell you about the above toy??The above row of numbers which I will repeat below would allow us to have a conversation in which you might ask if I would sell and I could say yes and I would ask where you live for shipping distance and then we could agree on a price for the toy,careful packing and postage(possibly $30)--

Hey
Rugsucker um I know your busy but do you know if the vacuums your going to sell me on eBay has attamements.
I'm kind of surprised in the depth of this thread.
I'm going to say it. He has no use it. Get a concierge ( that's a person who helps get items or services. Call one send to said location and pick up goods your dying for and they mail you.
If you don't do this quite simply stop posting you are border line harassing him. If you contact you will get banned.
Stop asking him questions he has already answered them.
Please just stop posting.
