That is one beautiful vacuum, could you give us any history on it, where you got it from, etc. Thanks so much for sharing.

1940's Eureka

 First of all sorry the picture is a little blury. It was one
of my first digital pics with a borrowed camera.
It came from ebay, I know nothing about it. Just delighted it was in such great shape and works. I had one
back in the 80's when I had my Vacuum shop in Upper
Arlington, here In columbus Ohio. That one was minus
the bag, the front belt cover and a burned up armature. So
never got to run it. Back then all the older shops in town
could not tell me where to find a new or used armature.
Norm
Let me know how many of you have ever seen one or even had
the chance to run it. Two speed switch and purrs like a
kitten!!

Have D272 in Emporia, KS

 Have two D272's in my vintage vac collection. One looks good and runs well and has an outer bag that houses a disposable paper bag inside. The other has part of the handle missing, and I haven't had the courage to plug it in and see if it runs. A carpet layer friend, who also manages a nearby apartment house, told me about a year ago that it was next to the apartment house dumpster and to take it if it wanted it. I took it!
