I wasn't the only one the vacuum gods smiled on last Saturday. Norm Brown, who accompanied me on the trip, picked up some treasures as well, and asked me to post some pics of them, which I am more than happy to do for him. So, without further ado, here we go. The first is a model 84 Constellation, along with Convertibles model 65 and 66. The 84 was the Connie that was sold alongside the Hoover 64 Citation, and the 65 and 66 were the first and second models of the Convertible--but you all knew that!

a once in a lifetime find! Norm is now the proud owner of (drum roll) a Scott & Fetzer Sanitation System!! This machine is in fine shape for it's age, and runs great! The original bag has no holes or tears, but we didn't run it long because it's in need of a sani-emptor gasket. Even included the hose! Congratulations Norm, on your awesome finds! Jeff |

Jeff and Norm, thanks for sharing you new "treasures" with us. What year would that Scott Fetzer be from? Wonder when they first started using the sani emptor? Terry |

Very good times, indeed! Almost like a mini-meet! And a pleasant trip to our destination and back as well! Also, when we got back to Norm's, he showed me his new and improved displays of his collection after we unloaded his new treasures. Of course, I took pics which will be appearing in another thread here soon. Stay tuned! Jeff |
