I have a Eureka Model 9; have always wanted a Model 10 because the Model 9 doesn't stand upright when you attach the hose. Many years ago, before I started actively collecting here in Los Angeles, I was walking down a sidewalk in Beverly Hills. (I used to work in the area.) I came to a street corner and saw an older man up on a ladder vacuuming the fancy woodwork on top of his very ornate front picture window. He was using an old upright with a hose that at first I thought was a very old Kirby until I got closer and saw that it was not. I asked him what brand it was and he said it was a Eureka -- it had belonged to his mother! I was too polite to ask him why he was vacuuming the outside of his house with it! This was Beverly Hills after all, where a lot of very kooky people live! Looking back, I later realized it was a Model 10. |

Here is a really ultra rare Dot Record magazine add from May 27th 1967. Most people don't know that she was a pretty great singer too! An interesting fact about the Dot record company is that they never really advertised much in magazines, and that's why this particular advertisement is so very rare.
