Hi all, I just found this and downloaded a few I needed/wanted. It has vintage manuals scans for a variety of canisters, uprights, polishers, shampooers, even PN's. Enjoy.

Take care!

Awesomeness!

This was totally cool!  So I checked the Kirby 515 manual, and at the end of the scans is a receipt dated 3/7/1955.  The person bought it for $112.15, which had the buying power of $995.73 in 2015 dollars.  Not a bad deal!  It must have been for just the upright and standard tools, no shampooer, Handi-Butler, or polisher.

 

THANK YOU for the link!!!

Charles, just so you know, the shampooer/rug renovator didn't come out until the Dual Sanitronic 50 in....What was it? '64 I think. wink

Wow! Never realized that! Thank you for the knowledge. Now I know why my Kirby dealer said the DS 50 was the best model Kirby ever made.

So do I!  I love that light-up Kirby logo on the headlight hood.  I'm not sure why, but that is super duper cool!

I concur with Charles (but the DS-80 is a close second!)! tongue-out
