Even rarer, 
are the two non-electrics. The brown thing that looks like a banjo on the left is called a 'Little Witch,' and dates to the late 1800's, I believe it was made in England. The other on the upper right is a 'Star' circa 1905 and was sold through the Sears & Robuck catalog.
As for the 'Duntley,' the company was originally 'Santo and Duntley,' though I don't have dates, but believe it was in the early 1900's. | ||

 The Santo is a twin to the Lux Model I other than the difference in the logo. There must be a connection here with Electrolux.

Lux I was under the impression that the Lux Model I was basically an improved knockoff of the Santo, but I'm not totally sure how accurate that is. | ||
