Yes, my numbers are based on discussions I have had with other collectors including yourself and the ones I have seen myself including an early one which went on Ebay several months ago which was DC only with 2 lead posts rather than 3. I have seen 3 of them here in Florida (including mine). I have been keeping my eye open for an original motor for you. One of these days, one will show up. Undoubtedly there are more of them tucked away in collections, museums, and attics!
Steve, does your count include the one that was on Ebay out of Vancouver Washington or was that a scam??. I can't remember.

Last Alva on Ebay that I saw was the 2 post DC only version. I dont know what the outcome was or whether it was a scam or not.

I believe it was a "two post". It was a year or two ago and I think it was a scam using pics of another's machine. I just remember it was Vancouver Wash.

That is probably why I didn't see the outcome. It probably got removed from Ebay.
