was one of the early designs of James B. Kirby. While he created it, took no credit. Franz turned to General Electric and they manufactured it.

I still can't believe how many weird and wacky vacuums were out there in the early teens and roaring 20's. Seems like anyone could just whip something up in their garage and get it patented. Not even museums have most of these vacuums pictured!

Alas, I'm sure many were lost during the metal scrap drives of World War II.
