1970's Goblin Aquavac

Image
A page from a magazine here, which must be 1970's, although it's not dated. Before the Aqua Vac was more widely available I imagine

Which? September 2016 - Vacuum Cleaners

Image
A massive change to the quality of tests from the 1960's as per my older scans, this is from September 2016, and the launch of the Dyson Eye.

Independent Electrical Retailer 2007

10 years on from the 1997 magazine from the same publication, I have a black and white scan! It shows how much time has moved on, alot less bias towards bagged machines!

Rowenta Air Force

This DL booklet is for the Rowenta Air Force. I've never seen one of these in real life, but I have the original brochure, so would have picked it up from a shop somewhere!

Rowenta Product Range 1980's

This lovely brochure features the Rowenta range from I presume the 1980's

Numatic - Early 2000's

Image
These are a bit of an odd one. Back when I was younger, I liked to download and print random stuff about vacuums. This is one of them, downloaded from RGK's website at date unknown, and printed on an inkjet with low ink... but then kept! These got possibly the most interest in my Paperwork series of videos on Youtube, so here they are! The quality is pants, but so is the quality of the originals! Looking at the George hose, I'm placing these at the early 2000's.

Kerstar 1983 Range

Image
This lovely A4 brochure is for Kerstar, surely the Numatic before Numatic overtook them! Despite 1987 written on the front page, the brochure is dated May 1983.  Fellow top bloke and collector Ryan has had 2 vacs from the above page, the KV10/1 and the KV 15/1

Bosch Cylinder Range - 2014/15

Image
This little DL booklet features the Bosch cylinder lineup. There's no actual published date, but the smallprint on one of the pages mentions tests carried out in 2013, so I've guessed the date at 2014 or 2015!
