All Wood Bissell

[Mikey P]

Found in the rafters of my cabin, circa 1925..


True story ..when we pulled it out after two hours we looked at it again and two tiny little baby chipmunks fell out of the vacuum chamber, still alive.. after an hour the mother came and rescued them and took them back under the cabin

No one would have appreciated this as much as a Carpet Cleaning guy... Very cool find! Glad Chip and Dale are OK. :-)

 

[encapman]

Very cool Mike!

I have one of those too. Was driving down the road one day and saw it in a yard sale. Stopped the car quick and bought it! But mine didn't come with any chipmunks.

It's on display at our office now...

These days Bissell also sponsors a fairly decent pro cycling team

Must be their "cyco" ball bearings they use. gives them the ability to sweep the competition>

 

[encapman]

Yeah - gotta love the "old school" ad writers... "Cyco" ball bearing.
Today it'd probably have to be "PSYCHO" bearing instead.

 

[Cleanworks]

Wonder if the Psycho is going to put it on his truck instead of the Royal.

That beats all. I'd sure do some bragging in your place.
