Came across this listing on iOffer.com for a piece of history for sale. He wants 12-times my offer. But, he'll throw in free shipping.

I have one of those in the vacuum cleaner museum. It is called a domestic cyclone. Ours works perfectly. And it was free. It was made between 1902 through 1915. Nothing at all to write home about. I would have rather used a broom. Very ineffective, not to mention a lot of work. People who visit the Museum laugh at its unusefulness.

Plus two people required to use this vacuum-one to pump it-the other to use the tool and hose.A broom needs only one person to use to do the same job. |

Tom's at the Vacuum museum is pretty cool. It doesn't really matter if it sucks much out of the carpet. It's a unique bridge between plain sweepers and electric vacuums. |

So...uh...does that mean that the "in the way, one too many" Vacuette may be available? My office needs a vacuette to join the Bissell Grand Rapids and Reeves pump vacuum. |
