Ok, here they are! The first is the adorably small Duplex canister vacuum. I couldn't find any info or old ads relating to it. I love Premiers so I couldn't resist getting the 47. Some of these canisters are going to be tricky to get hoses for, especially the oddball Super Vac and Sweeper Vac Imperial. I would bet that the other hose lots in that auction probably had them!

What is on the bag on the AV1? It almost looked like a faded Kirby Omega bag patch in the listing.

johnnyb59c,

I've heard his name but I cant say Ive met him.

Hoover300,

It does indeed look a little like a Kirby patch. I'm not sure what color the bag was originally since its so faded. The patch has a faint GE on it.

Sweet buy!! You got some good machines from the auction. I won the Scott Fetzer Vacuette Electric. Still waiting on the shipping details.

Bob,

Great score, indeed! I see you got the 1985 Mercury (Royal) 606ME!
