What you have there was the small companion vacuum to the full-sized Westinghouse upright marketed in about '52 or '53. It's the "ugly" one with the front headlight near the floor, meant to compete with the popular twin-fan Singer of the time. Somewhere I have an ad of the two of them featured together, but the ad is falling to pieces. Maybe someone else has a picture of the vacuum I am talking about. It was the same color scheme of your portable unit. I personally think that your portable is much more stylish than the upright. Nice, and very rare, find. Congratulations. John L. |
