    Hoover Model 28 Special - July 1953

    Hello All, Huskyvacs is 100 percent correct. My dad was IBEW Local 40 and if he caught either my brother or myself pulling the plug out of the wall receptacle by the cord, we would get it good.

    Tanks vs canisters

    Thank you Hello All of the above persons, I often wanted to bring this subject up.
