Glad to have the machine go to a good home and to someone who appreciates it.  That machine is unusual and somewhat rare especially in that condition with the box.  It was nice to meet you as well.  Nice to meet another collector in town.  That Lux upright is definitely available.  Just let me know.

Some of you may wonder why I am thinning the herd.  I have decided to make a change in lifestyle and put Tarantula Arms up for sale and move to a townhouse much closer into the city.  I probably would have done this sooner, but as you know, the market has not been great for real estate sales.  I work in downtown Chicago now and want to move back to my hometown.  I love this house, but it is time for a change.  I have finally convinced Charlie and Tania that is it time to move.  When I first floated the idea, Tania said "You can't sell our house!"  I have convinced her that it is the right thing to do and that the new "Tarantula Arms" will be a nice as the old one, albeit different and more urban.

So, I will have many vacuums for sale.  If you know of any in my collection that you are interested in, let me know.   I will publish a list.  Ebay is a pain.   I am keeping some of them, so if you ask and I say no, not to worry.  I have to get four rooms of vacuums down to one.  My loss will be your gain.
