    I wonder how many 1950s housewives loved their vacuum cleaners this much...

    Housewives & vacuums The tv shows that are supposedly set in the 1950's& 60's show the mothers dressed up with gloves, hat,etc.One example is that Pearl Vision commercial. I grew up in the 60's. Neither my mother,any of my aunts;or our neighbors dressed like that. I fondly remember my Aunt...

    recent vacuum sightings on TV

    Downton Abbey On the first episode last season,they showed a maid vacuuming. It was at the beginning of the episode. The household was in an uproar,because Lady Cora's maid left.I believe it was a coffee can Hoover upright. They only showed the top of the bag,& the handle,for just a second.
