The term "piece" applies to diamond brooches, antique cabinets, original paintings. (Even at that, it is annoyingly overused, usually by people gushing away on Antiques Roadshow.) It does not apply to old vacuum cleaners.

Well, your "pieces" are pretty rough, especially the Electrolux. The only thing of any possible value might be the motor -- but given the overall condition of the machine, that's a crap shoot.

The G.E. is okay but it appears to have been painted -- I've never seen one in that shade of green before. But I may be mistaken on that. However, it has a hardware-store replacement plug. And the hose is a "Brand X" replacement, which would be fine for someone wanting a functional vacuum cleaner (albeit not the greatest performer in the Vacuum Cleaner Universe) and most likely of little interest to a collector. (The original hose would have been a woven vinyl material with a color-coordinated stripe running through it. If that is indeed the original color of the machine, then that's the color the stripe would have been.)

Hope this helps. Apparently I come off as being snarky sometimes when I don't mean to be that way at all. I'm just what one of my school teachers once termed "brutally frank."

Well, I take back my comment about the G.E. appearing to have been painted -- it's obvious in the additional photos that it's the original color. But what I said about the cord and hose still stand.
