Robb, That's funny, I DON'T remember, I will have to look at yours again, I thought you had a blue one...When you say the early canisters do you mean the round ones... |

Robb, I have a model 90 too, also known as the "Golden Lewyt." Interesting how the wands and hose ends were gold. Unfortunately, I don't have any of the "above the floor" attachments (upholstery nozzle, dusting brush, crevice tool). Were they green like the rug nozzle, or cream colored? I hope to get a set someday. Also, was the hose green or cream? I think mine may be a replacement hose on the original Lewyt ends. It's cream colored, but seems to be a more modern style of hose than would have been available when the 90 was made. As for a gray big wheel, I could be wrong, but I think I saw one when I visited Mike Hays last year. He has at least one of every Lewyt that was made! I also believe Doug Smith has one on his website. My other Lewyt is a model 40--the first one made, if I'm not mistaken. It uses filter cones, like a Filter Queen. My 40 is not complete either--it has a full set of attachments, but no wands!! Both of them run great! Jeff |

Hi Charles, what a beautiful machine, I bet that really brought some $$ on ebay. Just wondering what the object is right in from of the crevice tool? Thanks so much for sharing this with us. |

Robb, My rug nozzle is just as you described--green with cream bumpers. And since the original hose is green mine is definitely a replacement. It's cream colored and one of the modern, "indestructable" types. And thank you for keeping an eye out for the tools--it would be great to have a complete set! Jeff |

There were a number of color combination for Lewyt big wheels including two - two tone gray machines. The straight suction model 120 (which I have) and the Lewyt Electronic model 121. You can see it on my web page (as well as several others) on www.dkas1.50megs.com... Doug |
