Keep your rags and windex handy. All vacuum cleaners should come with shelves.

Once back in 1989, we were on vacation in Ft. Lauderdale, and every morning were awakened by a Cuban or Guatemalan house keeper guy. "De clean, de clean"!! | ||

Jimmy:
That Lady Kenmore Whispertone that was yours, is flawless. I have the pink model 80 with matching pink power nozzle, at the Vacuum Museum. This model 90 with its pistol grip hose (I have the power nozzle already) is going to be displayed next to it.
The KenKart is the most amazing vacuum - I saw it more than 10 years ago at Mike Hays' home. I've never in my life seen another. Hans was VERY kind to make sure the Museum got it. It will be, of course, on permanent display for all to see, in the 1950's room. | ||

Another
Very Rare round KenKart model. One of the last of the Birtman-built KenKarts. Thanks to Alex Braun for this particular machine, which I had been lusting after for years until I wore him down and he made sure the Museum had it to display.

Kenmores! Beautiful Kenmores there. Can't wait to go back to the musuem to try them out. Those are my favorite generation of Kenmores. I am lucky to have a couple from that time period. Congrats to Hans and Tom G. for the new machines they got. -Tyler | ||

Mike
I made a lot of friends in the old VCCC, before leaving the club a decade ago. One of my good friends from the old club, Hans Craig, shared the original pistol grip electric hose for the Lady Kenmore Whispertone model 90, as well as a far better example of the actual machine itself. I received this model, complete with a new 5009 bag in it, plus two more. This one runs smooth and quiet. And, I don't know of another 1960 Kenmore pistol grip hose in existence.
