How cheap have I become? Re: cost of vacuums

[holmesuser01]

The O. E. Sutton company that owned Vornado sold out in the early 1960's. I have a 1961 Vornado window fan with a 2 speed motor that is really built on the cheap. The motor is nothing compared to the motor in the 1949 Vornado that I got from my dad. He told me that the big dent in it came when it fell out of a 2nd story window! It still works to this day.

I visited Vacuumland, and the washing machine site for awhile. I tried to become a member, but nobody ever emailed me back after I gave the info they wanted. So, I just quit going there.

Oh, how much do I collect? How much room is there in the house?

GeorgeJetson, the International vacuum you asked about... It's turquoise, and looks like a little rocket. It has a cloth bag. There are a bunch of them on the vacuumland site. I got mine when my grandmother passed, and we found it in the basement. I just couldn't toss it...
