I am primarily a cylinder tank guy so imagine how I was calculating while it showed no activity and that was strange given the excellent pictures. So I had to assume other's were watching it like I was. And precisely why I could not mention it on my top want list in that other thread and what prompted my essay about 'want it, go for it and no regrets'. I was prepared to go higher for this beauty of industrial design with all the pieces and that great tool suitcase. It also means I can take a rest now and let things find me instead of stalking them. The Top 5 List is completed and we have moved down to the second tier. |

I had a M Wards cleaner that looked just like that. I pulled it out of the trash ( out of an old barn) a long time ago. I couldn't figure out how to fix it or get it apart so it sat around for years. Sadly a quite a while ago I gave up on it and through it away. I will never do that again!!! It looked just like that but in a DARK grey color and it seemed to have a kind of fabric feel to it insted of paint. Maybe like denim.

This stunning complete vacuum ensemble has me all a-quiver with anticipation. I must remain calm as I won't be laying eyes & hands on it. the Singer S-2 or the Challenger until early November when I can get away to Butler PA. arghhhhh. In preparation, soon I will set up a second tower for lodging all the cylinders that aren't Electrolux. ie: Goblin, GE, Filtex, Plymouth, Apex,Westinghouse, Premier, Monitor, CT Master, Kenmore, etc, and leave a space for a future Hoover 50, a Universal Bomb and a nice blue Royal 401. I really didn't realize there were so many different Cylinder makes out there until I joined this forum, read every archive, and visited Doug Smith's vacuum site and home in Moose Jaw. He has some beautiful Presidents that knock my socks off. |
