While I am a Kirby collector, I can really appreciate your collection, it's fantastic! I'd love to hear what those old metal uprights sound like! | ||

Thank you, so very much.
MY collection is back home in Pittston. THIS collection belongs to a very close friend in Ohio, where I'm a guest. AS far as Eurekas are concerned, you'll find that NEITHER of us has any at all. I've mentioned this numerous times before, (so as NOT to get MYSELF in hot water). I ONLY collect HOOVER,,any and every thing HOOVER, HOWEVER, I appreciate those who collect OTHERS. I'm sure ye have the passion and admiration for those names as Tom and I do for HOOVER. So, sorry, you'll find no Eurekas here. I'm honored to be able to share these with you. Everytime I come to the town where it all began, see my friends, and hear the stories, it reinforces my devotion and respect for the great name in floorcare.

Hi Josh - Unfortunately, I have no room to collect vacuums and so I was not able to hold onto any of the beloved Eurekas I used to own (260 upright, 2083 upright, 1425 upright, Cranberry World Vac canister, Boss Lite cordless stick vac, Bravo hoseless BOL upright, Mighty Mite II 9 amp canister). I DO have a neat 220-Volt version of the Mighty Mite II compact canister which I bought for use in Israel when I lived there a few years ago. That vac is in a box in my storage locker in case I ever go back. It's a really cool navy blue and Eureka slapped their "World Vac" logo onto the side of the machine!!!
I would love to see a Eureka collection like this beautiful display of Hoovers... :-) | ||

Sam, Aren't they wonderful? That "gold" Dial-A-Matic is a Montgomery Ward label. HOOVER made a lot of cleaners with that label as well as JC Penney, originally billed, "Penncrest". I have a little surprise for you, SAm, Well, kinda. BUT, I'm gonna make you wait a bit for THAT! Yes, I AM cruel, thank you for noticing. lololo | ||

John, I'm ok with surprises and waiting a bit, as I'm assuming there is something Penncrest or JCPenney involved. Sam | ||
