I meant Murray spangler. As a child, I remember "Grace Spangler" visiting my grandmother. She was also her maid on honor. I learned, later, that she was her cousin. The Spanglers started out in Pittsburgh, pa. They relocated to Ohio. But, that's a nice model O.

That's the model "0", the 1st. You know the story about ( distant relative), Murray spangled. The besutiful one that graced the modern, " international building" in N Canton was sent to a desler.... to keep it from going to tti. But,it was sold back to them... the very thing the Hoover Company...

I even have an old, battered sign from the Hoover vault. It was made by the art department, for a display. " evolution of cleaners".

I missed some responses, sorry. Well, there are plastic totes, filled with every kind of paper bags. Attachments, manuals, ads, spare parts, oh my! I'll definitely post some " evolution pics". I also plan, when done, to display, say, 1 model 69, whiles the other 6 or 7 are stored in boxes...

They are towels and bed linens that I gad made. A former student. And his wife. Are into embroidery. I had lots of these made... some for here, for friends, etc. When friends stay over, it's nice to sleep on Hoover linens, don't you think?

Lolo, like I need a theology lesson.

I'll get loads of pics. A good friend of mine died this past Friday. Very little family. I was there... was awful. Lot on my mind. But... pic... soon.

They're great machines. They began as the "swingette", late 60s, 70s. The hose fits the Diam-a-Matics. The original motors were also in the Portables,Slimlines,DAMs. Later, they. Changed. They use a paper bag, or, can be used with their cloth bag. A must-have for regular use, or. As a collection...

Thank god!!

Some of these are from the convention in scranton... home of the infamous, " garden party". But, fear not! Canisters are on their way, too.

How about.....

Although, some have expressed an interest in certain things.

I'll post more pics soon, bill. I'm currently starting to sort, pack, etc, in preparation for the "gallery," to finally get the attention it deserves. They'll all get a nice cleaning, when they're unpacked. Tom Anderson, of course. Details everything. Perfectly, as does Wil Hemb. If you've...
