(1) Diamond Jubilee (2) Marquis) (3) Epic w/Sidekick These are in addition to a beautiful complete Silverado found a few months ago. I'll try to post some photos. Now?....what to do with all these Electrolux's??????

Re: Red Letter Day...
Terry...I really wasn't looking for anything special when browsing the thrift stores. It's more become a retired person's thing to do, if you know what I mean. ;-D I couldn't let those Lux's sit there in those junky thrift stores without having a good home. After 15+ years of service, the plastic Lux's are beginning to show up in the thrift stores. I don't think that you can beat a metal Lux for all around quality. The Diamond Jubilee was the last with the chrome top and is a very good looking machine. It's true; the plastic models do seem flimsy by comparison, but they must be made of fairly good plastic to have held up all this time. I'll admit; the Epic, in solid battle-ship gray, is certainly not a looker. | ||

Thank you, Terry.....
I do appreciate the sentiment. When I lived in Tampa, many years ago, I found much of my stuff at a nearby flea market at a drive-in theatre on Hillsborough Ave. I loved to go there early in the morning. You never knew what you might find in the piles of stuff the vendors would drag in. It was an old-fashined flea market compared to many now that specialize in new Chinese junk. Do you shop the flea markets or thrift stores near Ruskin? | ||
