the s-wands and rug nozzle. Has anyone ever heard of a Kingston before? The data plate says made in Michigan.

Ah, there it is! Very pretty! I was told by someone that Kingstons are a Royal derivative that were sold door to door. I know I've seen the name on Royal style canisters as well. Anyone know any more about this? | ||

Coronado Vacuum I happened to find a Coronado Vacuum, a Tan one, at a thrift store that's in quite good shape, if I can find it in my storage trailer I'll try to shoot a picture of it, it's in pretty good shape. | ||

The underside......the knurled knob adjusts how far the bristles retract as you use the nozzle

And another pic... In this one, you can also see my gorgeous turquoise Ken-Kart! I have a lot of turquoise machines; one of these days I'm gonna do a "Visions in Turquoise" feature for my web site.
