Ok I can throw in two pieces of information. To begin with the hose appears to be from a Goblin Clean Sweep (second picture below). The ends from the original hose, which would have been metal (shown in the third picture - from the net - below), are there though.
Also the series number 527 indicated model 5 - 1927, which would put it as one of the last of the model V (They changed to the model 11 in 1927. The dusting brush is from a later model of Electrolux (The original would have been wood the same as the one pictured with my model 11 below) and the Floor brush appears to be from a Siroma manufactured machine (Siroma used a triangular nozzle connection with 3 screws while Electrolux used one with only 2, also shown in my picture below) |

No need for that. You buy a voltage converter unit as a middleman between your outlet and the vacuum.
@ electrolux137 Any member can view user profiles on the site. He likely used a mail bot program that scans a page for emails and then sends the message in bulk to addresses found. I never got any message though. That email address domain he used traces back to the Pontifical Catholic University of Santiago Chile. So likely he's just a college student needing some funds, hence the high price tag on it. |

That's correct....I don't see it in your profile......wonder how he hacked that and who of us he profiled and why? A little unsettling......

He also contacted me, i already have one, not a 1924 model but a 27 model. Sent for Electrolux South Africa. Original cord although not the original hose. Sweet little machines. Mine needs some cleaning and buffing, but for 91 years old i think its in good condition. |

. The serpent -- actually the Rod of Asclepius (see link), was used on the 1925 model. The elephant, which was a company icon, was on the earlier 1924 model. I have seen various old Electrolux items such as bookends, etc., with the elephant icon on them. CLICK HERE TO GO TO electrolux137's LINK |

Thank you for the info Charles. Perhaps only the American version had the serpents on the handle? Does anyone have such version so we can see pictures? Back in the 1980's an Electrolux dealer by my house had a model V in the window. It was the only one I can recall ever seeing in person, and stupid me being a kid at the time never asked if it was for sale. The answer would've probably been "no" anyway, but still.
