I wonder if anyone remembers an Electro Hygiene Tank made in the late 50's. It was blue hammertone and had a place to put crystals of some sort on top of the hose coupling. This sort of looks like a Royal but the blower port on the back was flat and not rounded. It had two black solid runners and a shake out cloth bag with a red metal funnel that sat in the bag after inserted into the machine. Would love to see a picture of it. I remember my Mom buying this when I was real young. She traded in a Premier Upright that had a broken handle. This vacuum lasted for years and was passed on to my aunt after we moved to a house mom and dad had built. Mom bought a Westinghouse canister since she had a new house. That was the hardest bag change ever. I could not even do it most of the time. It was also the worst vacuum we had over the years.....I replaced that one with a new Hoover Model 70.

Any help or pictures would be appreciated.

Thanks

Bud

That is close, but Mom's had black solid metal runners and no cordwinder.
