That is a Frantz Premier, Jim Kirby's FIRST production model electric vacuum, 1910 - 1918. This is also the company who made the EZEE (grasshopper) non-electric model. Very rare (certainly more rare, and earlier, than any Scott and Fetzer machine). Yours is the second version of two. I have the first, which differs only in the switch.

$200 ya right.
The prices people quite are low. Buy vacuums dirt cheap and frugal. You could get half a king's ransom. This is IMO the most sought after vacuum by collectors. If you could have one vacuum cleaner more people would say vacuette. It's at least $500. Attention posters, I kind of commented on guessesing price. I don't mind if you do but let's keep it civil. Where in the heck did you get the machines. I just think I figured out how. I'm not saying. I'm starting a museum you could donate vacuums to me. You could use it as a write off. Les |
