Clueless in California Rick, I'm confused. Are these machines for sale? Is this the collection that was for sale on ebay? This is part of Hans (Hi Hans!)Craig's collection? I see some things I have in my collection. Sorry, I'm catching up on life outside of school now that thats done. Marty | ||

So close you can reach out and touch them...and yet so far o
It is always surprising perhaps which vacuums appeal across the broad span of members here. As a deeply devoted vintage form & function design and engineering guy, it's the Hamilton-Beach on 4 casters, The Fairfax-ish Whatever Brand It Is (McAllister? Conlan-Moore CONVAC?) kitty-corner to it...and what the heck is that one between them with the transparent amber top? A corn popper? A vacuum display with a demonstration dome to show the cyclonic swirl? But above all the one that garners most of my covetous yearning is the Lewyt 66(?) on the dolly. Because the superb turquoise Westinghouse will surely take pride of place in Snellville or Ruskin... Crap, there I go go picking out the best ones in my temporary delusion. LOL Ok, the Kenmore Commander is darn nice, too, and the two Westinghouse Torpedoes and the Eureka Roto-matic and the range of Electroluxs and the Apexs, Air-ways, Royal, Filter Queens and Hoovers, oh my goodness the mind buckles under sheer wonderment. :-) I want to send out my admiration and gratitude to Terry and Rick for saving this assortment of goodies and a huge round of applause to Rick for setting them all out so alluringly in his driveway that we may all dream & drool over such an instant collection. Hardly surprising but good to know that a few will be retained, a few will no doubt be gifted to new homes and the rest sold off will more than pay for the lot. Congratulations in advance, you two intrepid scalliwags. Nice touch, the Made In America flag wafting proudly over the hoard...er, herd of classic Dust Buffalo. Now, about matching up those hoses and tools...:-) Dave | ||

Begging everyone's pardon while I state the obvious...
That red one is a Saniway, more or less just like the one Fred Stachnik found in the Minneapolis area on Saturday morning and posted about, um, this morning. :-) As this thread discloses above, the methods of dispersal have been decided. If anyone has not been contacted privately by the Honorably Scrupulous Rick or Terry, based on who first indicated interest back when I posted about this collection on August 18th and according to private sale/gifting availability after Terry and Rick make their own cull of course, the remaining vacuums matched to whatever hoses and accessories Rick can manage will be available to all on Ebay and we will be advised right here when the first ones go on Ebay. I, for one, look forward to the Ebay listings where I will have a level field chance to bid on any items that really demand my interest and potential win.
