I've been lurking around here for a bit, enjoying reading the topics, but today, I got something that I had to post, just to show off a bit.

I don't really think of myself as a vacuum cleaner collector, but I do have three Filter Queens and two Kirbys...so I probably have a bit of the bug.

Anyway, the youtube link will show the surprise. :)

That is really neat! I am sure that was a big help in selling the machines.

I imagine, if they were truly used for that. But I'm pretty light on facts about it, other than this one belonged to the seller's father, and that he did in fact sell FQ. But I've not been able to find a single actual fact about this container. Not when it was made, for what purpose, or anything.

But I'll keep digging...I might get lucky sometime.

That's fabulous! I totally want a clear bin for my FQ!

This just in from my inquiry with HMI:

"Hello Sam!

We just recently (within the last 5 or 6 months) stopped producing the
clear dirt containers. They were intended as "demo" products for
distributor's usage when doing product demonstrations."
