Ladies and gentlemen, for your consideration, the Hoover Portable Cleaning Center, in wondrous shades of green, purchased from St. Vincent de Paul earlier this morning for the princely sum of $8.52! A marvel of heft and portability, this makes up for the tomato colored one I left in the same...

I hope this alright to post this, here's a link to an Imperial Thread on AW.org. The gentleman is letting Hoovers loose, and probably would not mind us asking about them. Scroll down for picture. http://www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?28757_9

Since "The Big Change", my friends Karen and her daughter Whitney and I have been hitting the high spots in this place, after three years in an interrupted life. I decided to use my wonderful Swivel Top Cord-Reel without the extra helpers to hit the things popping up that the kitties and I track...

I was wandering around in the back of the Fort Pierce Goodwill today, and nearly tripped over a complete S3199. I wasn't just about to leave it there, with a posted price of $24.99. It misses its dust brush though. It's dark green and mint, with that huge chrome top. It's identical to one Fred...

How about this little Texan beauty, for all you GE, Premier, Whirlwind fans? Who else had this GE based canister? http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Wizard-Citation-Swivel-Canister-Vacuum-Cleaner_W0QQitemZ370267796073QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item5635ae3269

Two days ago, I found a lovely Decade 80 in the Fort Pierce Goodwill, for $6.99. Didn't buy it because I'm overrun now with uprights and no space until the roommate and her posessions move out. So today, I was determined to buy it if it was still there. Lucky me, I got it for a total of $5.59...

I got a message on December 16, to look out for a package, what I end up with today is a complete GE vacuum from the 1965 era, the loaf shaped model like the one in the picture I swiped from Fred's brochure thread. I can't get a snap of it tonight because things here are tied up. But not only...

St. Lucie West Goodwill, which netted me my lovely two tone maroon and white Convertible, the $10.00 Magnavox, a Drexel Projection sideboard from 1958, and this ethereal cream yellow and white with beige bag Premier upright. $7.25 with tax. It is loaded with luxury features-exclusive $1.98...

Want a good laugh? How can even the uninformed be this far off? It is a parts "vaccum" at best. http://cgi.ebay.com/Vaccum-Cleaner-General-Electric-Vintage-60s-or-70s_W0QQitemZ120308699144QQihZ002QQcategoryZ20617QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Here's a deluxe model Premier on eBay like the GE model, but I also notice the floor tool has a plastic instead of a metal neck. I wasn't aware Premier went this uptown on their vacuums...

I thought this was interesting for various reasons, I wonder if anyone here has this make in their central vacuum system? http://cgi.ebay.com/vintage-Airmaster-Built-In-Home-Cleaners-Brochure-NR_W0QQitemZ370087465639QQihZ024QQcategoryZ115993QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

How about this Vactronic canister with the service technition's fevered ramblings about the Wizard Of Oz and the vacuum cleaner industry? Somebody has been hittin' the 'shrooms...

Here's the video I accidently placed in the purple section. I think the whole clip bears viewing. It's a skit about a vacuum cleaner salesman:

I was trolling for Constellations on YouTube, and ran into this. It of course is Hoover's 50th anniversary year.

Here's one of the surprises that ge1969 sent me for the cost of mailing. Even though he didn't ruin the surprise, I knew this was coming. I bought bags for it two weeks ago in anticipation of its arrival. He included some also. It's Serial #115740, and has the Ultraflex hose. It works very well...

This is just the bee's knees! Colors and accessories, and no bids yet, somebody want to give it a go? http://cgi.ebay.com/VTG-GE-MV-2-CANISTER-VACUUM-quality-exceeds-Oreck-XL_W0QQitemZ290236089938QQihZ019QQcategoryZ20615QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
