Whats your oldest vacuum?

[vac_whisperer]

Hey! Whats the oldest vacuum you have? Mine is a 1965 Dual 50. EVERYTHING is original- not a single replaced part!

 

[suckolux]

It would have to be my 1920s Eureka Jr.

Mine would be one of the following two

Not sure which is older. First is my Kenmore canister

From my D50 picture

1: I have the UGLIEST carpet, dont I?
2: The pic does not do the vacuum justice. It makes the scratches look bigger and it is actuallyb much shinier.

My oldest vacuum....

is my 1938 Hoover Model 26, a/k/a the "Ensemble in Brown". She is the matriarch of my little Hoover family

 

[brandon_w_t]

WOW!

The satin bag hoovers above are just amazing guys!


And that 26 is to die for! Looks so mint!

My oldest vac is my Hoover Junior 1334, not sure of it's exact age, but is in the region of about 50 years old, and still working, not 100% original, but most of it is there and working smoothly...

I just realised I haven't taken many pictures of it, only a couple when I was using a scruffy bag, not the one it came with, oh well...

1928

An old AEG Vampyr upright straight suction (no brushroll) - the first vac that was assembly lined in Europe ever (still waiting for its restoration, so many parts missing).

Hey Sam, this avatar pic of yours, does it resemble you or was that just an arbitrary pick? (Sorry to drift off topic).

The Vampyr vac still needs some serious redo and a severe "spa weekend" so forgive me for not having posted pics.

1919

Model 102 as well! Looking for a Hoover 'N'
(Shoulda kept the 1909 Hoover Senior Side Outlet but at least it has a really good home!)
