Shaun of The Dead TASE Very well spotted, its a UK Convertible (actually a senior) so its most likely green or blue. You can tell its UK as the cable clips are of the left standing at the back of the cleaner rather than the right Al

Photo Could you kindly post a Photo please, then we may be able to tell you more about it as there was a model 30 (XXX actually) in America and a different one in Europe although the Z denomination indicates European origin. Upload photos by using the feature "Upload JPEG Format Picture to...

Dates 1934-1935

Box Sam The box you have is for a 375, probably pre-WW2. Hoover119dude's box is the correct one for the 119, which is in keeping with the early 1950s style. You just have to get a 375 now LOLOLOLOL Al

Lux XI Congratulation Tommy, you have done a great job with that cleaner

Colour It was repainted, the cleaner shown by Hoover119dude is in the original colours. Its a lovely machine, I would not be thinking of selling it if it were mine

General Electric Guido It seems to me that it owes much more in its design to Universal models, see "CreviceTool's" current thread "An EBay horror story..........(not)" for an example of their cleaner. Now I admit it is not an exact copy but it is close. I know for a fact that Universal...

I realize everyone is totally bored with me Rick ABSOLUTLY NOT! I have always enjoyed your posts of the restorations you have done and all the interesting information you have shared with us about the Universal company - and they were not even a brand that sold over here. Its been great to...

U4014 Sam Its not the best of photos but I would say that's the original bag. Time to start practicing the shake and vac dance then - I bet your little daughter would love to see you doing that (maybe not with the S&V though) Al

System 50 As others have pointed out here there are ways and means to make your System 50 run in the US, but there is something else you need to be aware of, at least if it still has the original hose - for if it has TREAT IT LIKE IT WAS GOLD ENCRUSTED WITH RUBIES These hoses are known for...

And another at a much more reasonable price, they do not crop up with these bags that often and its very unusual to see two during the same week. The good condition of the tools and carrier indicate that this may have been well looked after...

The price is eye watering Not sure if this is a Hoover replacement bag, or later version production as the plastic bags do not do well here, my 652 has the same bag. Shame the flex is not original...

Junior I thought the 1334E had a grey bag, it was kind of a mash up of old Hoover inventory. Still, this one looks quite nice http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1960s-Hoover-Junior-1334E-Upright-Vacuum-Cleaner-/281218791600?pt=UK_Vacuum_Cleaners&hash=item4179f238b0

This weekend has thrown up some interesting cleaners I think this is only the second of these I have seen, I bought the first one. This dust cup version was one of the last model Seniors ("New for 1984") and were pretty short lived. This one looks like it needs work...

Not Bustler Walter I think any Bustler dealership would have been pre-war rather than post war as I believe what was Bustler became the Dudley cleaners supplied to the co-op. Have you seen this article about vacuum cleaner salesmen in Birmingham? Its been on the net for a long while, but...
