I just found a really neat vintage film produced in 1955 by the Lewyt Corporation called “How to Clean Your House and Like It”!!!!

It features their Big Wheel vacuum and shows how to use it in a variety of ways.

Part one of three is linked here…I’ll try to post the other two links as well.

Enjoy!!!

And here’s Part Three…

There is no way our current dusting brushes are as soft as the ones made in the 1950’s. The last decently-soft brush I owned was the one that came with my Kenmore Progressive canister.

Thanks for posting this Brian. Love the Lewyt vacuum they used....I have the exact same one used, and plan to restore it soon.

Did they name the actress? She reminds me of Trixy Norton.

The wonderful Lewyt Big-Wheel could turn on a dime. The easiest canister to pull around ever. Too bad about the zapper models....

Glad everyone is enjoying this Lewyt film.

Question: is it not a bit weird that the actress takes out that jar of moth crystals from the bedside table? Who the $&@?! keeps moth crystals in the drawer next to your bed? 😳😳😳
