Hi Evan,

I have a typewriter collector friend, Damon, who lives in the mid-west and he mentioned someone that he knows who lives in your town. His friend is also the same age and collects vacuum cleaners, as do I. I don't remember but I think that his name is Evan, as well, and he was supposed to join us for our typewriter collectors gathering in July but couldn't make it. I don't know if you noticed that we (you and I) live just a couple of towns away!

Best,
Rich

Rich,

That is very interesting. I know someone through the Vacuum Cleaner Collectors Club who lives in Ohio that collects typewriters, but his name is not Damon. As far as I know, I am the only vacuum cleaner collector in Concord.

Do you collect any vintage vacuums or large appliances? I am currently limited to vacuums due to the space I have, but I hope to be able to start a washer collection in the future.

Hi Evan,

If you know John Z. then you know a very good friend of mine. He comes out here every July for a week long visit to go to the Brimfield Antiques Show with me.

I collect vacuum cleaners, coffee pots, toasters and all other sorts of vintage appliances. I only have three large appliances. Two wringer washers and a 1950's Kitchen Aid portable dishwasher.

I can see why you have no room for washers...100 vacuum cleaners )))

Time for a Yankee wash-in!!!

Hey Bobby,

Wouldn't a Yankee Wash-in be more on the lines of a washboard and basin?? Aren't we Yankees too frugal for electric or automatic washers ) Don't forget the homemade soap made from some road-kill renderings!!!

Rich

 

[bobbyderegis]

Yankees are cheap?

Rich, I think us Yanks would be proud to show off our automatic washers and dryers.... Just don't ask us to turn them on!
:.)))

 

[vacboy88]

Rich,

I know John Very well!

Evan

 

[perc-o-prince]

Just don't ask us to turn them on!

That's GREAT!!!!

All kidding aside...it would be nice for us (anyone in the area) to get together and meet. Anyone up for it???
