Royal also made vacuums in the "Prince II" guise, with the same baby-blue trim color as the model 880.
This is a model 870 dated November 1986. But, one question comes to mind: didn't Royal also reserve the "Prince" and "Prince II" names for such former Electro-Hygiene models as 285 and 903, and the trio of removable-head models 888, 980 and 990? ~Ben |

Ben, I have never seen any of the removable models with the word "Prince" on the bag. I believe all of them had Prestige or Supreme on their bags. The 990 was Galaxie prestige, the 980 was Supreme Electro Hygiene and the 888 was Royal Prestige. |
