  1. I have just about the same vac. The Royal Commercial, the one I have is a the same age as yours. I had to replace the bag because of holes in the old one. I also do not have a light on mine. All and all I have to say that Royal kicked Kirby’s ass with this cleaner.
    All medal blades and whole lot less plastic, something Kirby lacks.

  2. not just the vaccum’s you should say the whole house. my great grandmother’s the same way she stillhas the same stuff she had in 1972

  3. You might be able to find a date code on the bottom of your Royal. There is a letter to represent the month and two numbers for the year. Example, my Royall 880’s date code is D84. So it was made in December of 1984.

  4. Each letter code represents the month of a year. “D” would be April. But did they use the letter “I” (which is confused with the number 1) to designate the month of October, or did they skip and use the letter “J” instead?
