On eBay, there is a 1974 Royal 880. The seller lists the model as being a 1969 model, but the serial # on it reads 37J-A-77361. The "37J" code breaks down as: 3 = calendar year 1973 7 = calendar year decade (1970s) J = calendar month October (or September if "I" is skipped) I am wondering if, because of the serial #, this vacuum belonged to Jeff Schroff (hygiene903) at one time. If so, this could be his opportunity to reclaim it. ~Ben CLICK HERE TO GO TO kirbyclassiciii's LINK on eBay |

Well, the adjust-o-rite may have been replaced, but I have no doubt that the bag is original, first because it is the same as the bag on the one in your ebay link, and also because I started selling Electro-Hygienes about 3 months after this one was built, and that's the bag I remember seeing on the 880 Royals at that time.
