~ I was poking around in my workshop today and I came across my Model R Electrolux. I hadn't used it in a while so I brought it upstairs and gave it a whirl around the apartment. It's a lovely machine; nearly as quiet as the Model G. |

Interesting the box calls it the “Special” Model R. I’ve never seen a box from an S which seems to have been the predecessor to the model R and the R the predecessor to the L.
I don't know the reason for that -- the Model R box is different than the Model S box (see below).
It has paper bags. I have two Model Ss, and they both came with cloth bags but I don't use those.
