Spent most of today emptying warehouse. See pictures on supermarket thread. Please understand that this is hardly twenty percent of what is here and does not show commercial vacuums. I knew there were three or four CB's in back corner, but the final count was ten! More later. Any interest?

CB's

The photos are posted now. Had some trouble before. But there aren't any pictures of the commercial/industrial vacs. They are now at another area. There are much more than CB's; including Clark, Black and Decker, Invincible, Double-wide Eureka for service master, Craftsman, Doyle, and more.

As above comm vacs are out of warehouse and can be dealt with after rest of warehouse is empty.I may keep a brown.Others WILL GO to new homes!But it will take time before going back to comm vacs.
If you have seen pics on 'Final Warning' thread please be aware that these and all previous pics DO NOT show HALF of what is left!!!
If any collectors are interested GET THEM NOW or buy a Pepsi can in 6 months and get a small piece of one!!!

Jimmy,

Please check the power nozzle and see if it has a different model than PN-1 (like PN-1C). Also, please post a pic or two of it, so I can add it to my other power nozzle photo collection.

Hi rugsucker.

caligula's profile picture
As far as I recall, the C-A used the hose that went with the first model G, and the power nozzle hung on hooks at the back of the unit. The complete C-A featured a holding tank and baffle for wet pick-up, as well as a rubber hose, and squeegee floor tool. In most cases however, it was used as a regular vacuum cleaner with standard hose, tools and so on.

Right now I'm saving up to get things at the convention, but in the not so distant future I may consider buying it. Send me a private email on what you're asking for it, as on rare occasions, I've met a 'high offer.' Time is not a factor here, as this would be in my display room which I'm in the process of building.

I'll know more on this post convention.
Alex Taber.

Hi rugsucker.

Works for me.

The C-A is one of those 'dream machines' I saw as a kid, but has always eluded me. After the convention, let's talk about what you want for it.
