My grandfather was an Electrolux sales and service man for as long as I can remember. He passed away last year and my mom and dad have asked me to help sell the collection. I've sold 2 vacuums on ebay and another to the same buyer. I'd like to sell the remaining ones outside of ebay and would be willing to sell the entire collection. I've taken a ton of photos and they can be found at www.flickr.com/photos/109...

The ones sold so far are 1 Model V and 2 model XXs. Additionally the framed picture is also sold. Please feel free to email me if you're interested in anything.

Thanks,

Ethan

Hi Ethan!

I'm sorry to hear about your loss!!! That's a very nice collection your grandfather has! That gold Electrolux model XXX or 30, was that custom painted, Canadian, or a very rare vacuum??? It's very nice looking and was just curious if you knew anything about it? I might paint my XXX that same color now! I like your Electrolux ZB55 Canadian too!!! Very pretty! :) -Michelle

it's my guess you're gonna get a lot of interest because Electrolux is a very popular brand around here. That is quite a collection, I hope you do well with it...

I, too, offer my condolences. Although everyone knows I'm all HOOVER, I truly appreciate that proud collection. I'm sure others will treasure those items once again. Best of luck.
