I just saw this on Ebay and am wondering if it is the original (1977) Electrolux upright. According to the product history brochure that model was yellow. |

The first Upright came out with the Super J. It has the full bag indicator light next to the on/off switches. Yours matches the Olympia One. They moved the indicator light to the top rear of the motor housing. There was also a matching model to the Silverado as well as the Diamond Jubilee. Within one year of the launch of the DJ, the matching Heavy Duty upright as well as the matching "Special" model disappeared - replaced by the High Tech 2100 and the Discovery II.

I think that is the best upright ever made, one of the very few that adjusts all four wheels so the nozzle stays exactly flat above the carpet. |
