While cleaning out my grandma's place, I came across her old Shetland vacuum. This vacuum was used right up until a few years ago and Grandma really USED it. I'm still searching out the tools and did come across a few, but the real find was the original box and some paperwork from the vacuum. Its interesting that the box only has the name Shetland in one spot and that was covered up by a shipping label addressed to the store that sold it. Just the word "Vacuum Cleaner" appear on all sides of the box.

So, I need to find all the tools that grandma may have misplaced. Hopefully they didn't go with the shop vac she sold shortly after my grandpa passed on. One of the floor tools was a Vibra Beat nozzle that Eureka had. I want to locate that to see if it is a Eureka tool or Shetland's copy.

Anyways, enjoy the pics.

Joe

Great find Joe!

And I'm sure that since it was your Grandmother's it means a lot to you, just like having my Grandma's 82 Connie means a lot to me. And having the paperwork is a big plus, as it's usually harder to find than attachments, which are usually harder to find than the vacuums they go with.
