Hey Tom!

Yes the Kenmore toy does have a shake out bag and it makes a weird noise! I think they were trying to copy the sound of vibration on the carpet! HAHA But look more pics:! SEE HOW MUCH IT LOOKS LIKE MY SINGER TWIN FAN!!!

I've got one too

Kyle I have one of those toy kenmores also this one day I took the bag off and cleaned it. Talking about old toy vacuums or sweepers I have a 1966 suzy homemaker, 1974 tuff stuff vacuum (by mattle), an old bissle little queen, and a small 1950s tin electrolux. And who has the old rare dirt devil broom vac besides me?
 
I din't get any vacuums for Christmas....well yes i did but you will have to wait and see when it comes because it is COOL!!!

a note to Dirt-devil... the kenmore toy vacs the one in my pics are from 1964! I met the original owner of that machine and she showed me pics of Christmas 1964 when she got it..very interesting!!
 
Toy vacs

I have:

* Dirt Devil "Junior" upright vacuum brand new in the box - also the matching red hand vac brand new in box.

* Three ~1960 "Pretty Maid" uprights by Marx, one maroon, one light blue and one dark blue.

* Meile yellow canister

* a tiny little pink and white upright, about 8" tall, hard-body with clear plastic dirt chamber with little white pellets that jiggle up and down when you wind the machine up.

Others have come and gone over the years, including a couple of the Hoover World's Fair giveaways.

Tom Anderson, do you have the electric miniature 63?! [I *think* that's the right model -- the dark blue and gray one] I have seen a really cool print ad of mother and daughter in matching "cleaning outfits" using their respective Hoovers -- the byline says something like "Same mother, same daughter, same Hoover" or some-such. I have never seen one of these toy 63s and wonder if they really were fully functional - motor, "BAISAIC" agitator etc??
