Vacuuming the Stan Kann collection rug. Everything is so fresh and clean now. All the people who come to the convention will enjoy it. Plus it will look great on television.

Robert doing the shampooing. We used both the Electrolux Dry Foam epic shampooer, as well as Robert’s rug doctor. With all the people who have RSVP’d as well as the three camera-men and a director, there’s going to be a lot of people.

Who knew what a Hoover 725 can do with a new belt?

Little break for dinner at Piscotti’s. Handmade St. Louis style pizza, baked in to brick Blodgett ovens. Salads, sandwiches, pizza. Always fresh. This is where I take people who come to the convention

A Sunbeam Special, Touch ‘N Lock, and a Courier. All use a single fan about the size of a dinner plate. Sunbeam was able to get some amazing suction way back in the 1960s

A few Dysons. They are all rare in their own way. I think the purple DC04 Zorbster is perhaps the only one in the United States.

I love my self-propelled Concept Hoovers. Especially the electronic, which was the top of the line.

One of the worst Hoovers ever made. Although, people who are Just into Hoover might excuse all of its many, many downfalls. This one is going into the “free pile”.

The awesome power of water. Wet dust cannot fly. In the middle is the 1980 Rainbow D3A. The Ocean Blue, Hyla, Ritello, Vivenso, RoboClean, the Robot, and The Pigg.

“Oh no, she didn’t“. “It’s on now like donkey Kong“. Hoover versus Kirby

Sampling some of the unique sandwiches at Piscotti’s. I can’t wait for everyone who comes to the convention to give this wonderful and unique Italian restaurant a try.
