Just received another shipment of machines from England (Thanks again Al). The two most interesting ones will require quite a bit of work so they will probably be put aside for a winter project.
So without further delay may I present the Electrolux model XI (220V made in England - 1926) and the Electrolux model 9 (110V made in France - 1933) |

Hey Doug. That Norvac canister is pretty interesting. If my memory serves correct, this exact same style of canister was sold under the Electrolux name in England. So do you know anything about the Norvac name? Was this perhaps a re-badge for a department store chain in England, or was the Electrolux name sold D T D & Norvac sold in vac shops? This certainly is the first time I have ever seen an Electrolux sold under a brand name that wasn't their own.

Hey Rob
I know very little about the Norvac machines. That is the only model of Norvac that Electrolux England lists on their time line so it may have been a one time thing. They do list Volta machines as well though. While it was out at the time of the model 62 the Norvac still used the same design as the previous model 55 as well as the same parts as the 55. Doug |

Awesome, particularly like the power lead coming out through the rear wheel! |

Hi Doug That was my point. I don't think the UK ever had such a thing. |

And here is the Volta version from 1979 without light. Electrolux also made this with Dometic brand model UE4 for Canadian markets, 115V. |
