Hi, I got a e-mail from a collector who has set up his website showing off some of their vacuums. I believe he's italien so unless you can read italien you will just have to look at the pictures. There seems to be some nice looking vacs on there.
I thought I would stick this thread in the household forum as if I put it in the miscellaneous forum younger members might not get to know about it.

Thanks for sharing your friend's website. What an awesome collection and amazing dossier; so comprehensive, detailed and well-organized! He would likely make a sterling vacuum museum curator. |

As soon as I found this new site - few weeks ago - i immediately wrote to Andrea Porcile for congratulate with him. Andrea did this new online-museum in the best way possible : easy to navigate, very well done photos and - for the very first time online - there are some REALLY RARE european machines - vacuum cleaners, vacuum brushes and floor polishers - that you will find nowhere else on the internet, many of them with original material, ADs or instruction booklets.
Hope one day to be able to do the same with my collection : this new online museums might hopefully create a fresh new interest in this great machines from the past. And maybe people might take their "OLDIES BUT GOODIES" vacuums out from the barn and put them for sale for collectors instead of throwing them in the scrap like most of people usually do here in italy !
