Here it is shown hung in this Lady's closet with her GE AVF-801 upright for carpets. The Tidy documents included the User Manual for the 801, leading me to believe the Lady bought both Cleaners for her postwar home. Now I'm gonna haver to get an 801. But for now will join the other GE cylinders down GE Lane, right 'round the corner from LUX Towers...

Going by Doug Smith's reference site the AVT-160 was introduced in 1947. This one has the blue tools so it's the 1949 model. 4 years older than I. Wow, and in such great shape! I've still got all my parts too but a lot more dings and dents... General Electric Model: AVT-160B - 115V AC/DC 310 W Year: 1949

I certainly remember Grammas Kerr and Scheafe starch ironing from the freezer. And the sprinkler bottle, oh yes. Mom used a Heinz 57 catsup bottle with a red plastic sprinkler head that screwed on top, as long as I can remember,til at least 1970 when I left home. Even tho she had a steam iron the sprinkler was best for certain fabrics, she said.
