I purchased this cleaner a long time ago and would like to know a little more about it. Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks! | ||

It's a Eureka Model 10. Late 1920's. Oil Bearings (don't run it before you lubricate the bearings). $59 original price. If you bought during the spring cleaning promotion, the attachment set was free. That model was also known as the "Standard", as the model it replaced, the model 9, continued to be made but was called the "special" when it ran alongside the deluxe model 10. The 10 was the first Eureka with an adjustable height to the back wheels.
This is my model 10 Standard. It was a gift from Stan Kann, the grandfather of the vacuum collecting hobby.

Eureka model 10 Thanks for the information! I'm assuming you have to disassemble the cleaner to oil the bearings? I can tell you that the cord is rotted so bad that it was scary to plug in, and there were lots of sparks coming from the brushes when I turned it on. | ||
