Hey
I have a vacuum stamp that I used InkPad and I'm posting the pic of it. It looks like EDC and whirlw are lettering on stamp.
The second is I just viewed a d80 on eBay with 2 items I've never seen.
If I were to guess first would be a intake that someone painted. The second maybe a strap with green cover.
Android photo editing is eluding me. I can crop pics but rotating I have not found yet.
Thoughts
Les

That stamp came out nice!

I tried looking for this Whirlwind vacuum ever since you posted about it, I have not found anything other than some old tank-style 4-wheeled cleaner from the 1800s, and some other friction cleaner from Australia.

Not sure what this one is. Maybe EDC was some kind of sub-division of a city electrical company that sold cheap vacuums you could tack onto your electric bill in monthly payments.

There is a general electric vacuum that looks close. Its very logical a electrical company did this. I was thinking maybe a vacuum shop owner that sold like Stark vacuums would stamp invoice with stamp and his initials were EDC. That makes sense but whirlwind maybe early wording for cyclonic.
I just remembered I did use the stamp yet and wanted to post it.

That is probably it, "Whirlwind" was probably just a sales gimmick because it sounded cool and not any true name. Hopefully someone might remember seeing one and know what it is. It does look like an early Eureka vacuum, that single rear wheel clumsily tacked onto the outside of the motor is kind of unique.

Oh, I flipped the photo around for you real quick too.
