This is the second TOL Eureka Vanguard from 1972 with the cordaway that I have owned. This is not as nice as the other one, as that one had been restored, but this is not too bad.


Seems like it's a Eureka week for me.

A few scratches here and there. A tiny ping in the metal hood. Has a Vibra-Groomer 1 in it.

Closeup. Realized its a little blurry after uploading it. I will have some better pictures once I clean it all up.

Back. The bag is remarkably nice. The cardboard top is starting to curl in near the handle, but not too bad.

I have see several other boxtop cordaway eurekas in the same thrift store, but none from the gold flowerprint bag era until today.

Here is the machine I used to own.

Here are some other boxtops I have found at the Goodwill. The burgundy one sadly didn't have the original bag.

The one on the left of course is not a box top but is a rare cordaway. The one on the right I passed up because the bag was pretty well shot. But unique machine nonetheless.
