While searching for pics of old Singer vacs, I happened upon a really cool photo of a store display showing Eureka vacs!
Enjoy....

Thanks, Jimmy!
I was wondering about the colours too....Since this display is from 1957, it is Eureka's Golden Anniversary Year (1907 to 1957), and if I remember correctly, the RotoMatic canister and Automatic upright were green with gold highlights (like the headlight frame on the upright). I think yellow and grey were the colours for the year before or after (1956 or 1958). Not sure.....I would agree that the older models on the right of the display were in that cranberry red of the early 1950's. |
