More New Additions

Seems the vacuum gods are still smiling on me! This Saturday my son Jeff Jr. and I went to visit our friend and fellow collector Jim Barnhart. We showed him the pics from last weekend (most of which are posted here on about 3 different threads) and he showed us his latest additions since we were up there last.
While we were there he gave us some really beautiful machines, all duplicates of machines in his collection, as he wanted to make room for some machines he is getting and knew we'd give them a good home. First, a beautiful Electro-Hygiene 903 upright. Although we already have 2 903's, the one he gave us is a better specimen than either of the ones we already have. Second is Royal 880, which is the Royal equivalent to the 903 and in blue is equally as beautiful as the 903. And besides being beautiful machines, they both run as good as they look! He also gave us not one, not two, but FOUR Royal 501 hand vacs, each one representing a different period in time from the early 60's (I think) through the 80's. All four are great running and looking machines! Pics will be posted as soon as I finish the roll and get them developed, so stay tuned!
And THANKS AGAIN, Jim, for these fine additions to our collection!
Jeff

Checkrate/Likes *You are Very Welcome !!!!* I needed the room as you know. I did some rearranging after you left and now have a bit more room. Use them and enjoy. Now I have to sell some Royal 602's and 801's. Anyone here interested in a clean original serviced running Royal 602 or 801? Let me know in my email in my profile if interested in making a deal on one or more :-) Happy Rayaling Jeff and Jeff Jr. Jim

Checkrate/Likes *oops forgot !* If anyone is interested in a Royal 501 Hand Vac let me know. I have models from 4 generations. All have been serviced, cleaned and run great. All have the original perfect cords and bags on them. Jim :-)
