w/ a laundry room, etc. I sound like a realtor. All Hoover stuff.. not like there would be a swing or anything like that there. Just museum quality machines, and Hoover items and paperwork, manuals, etc.
Wow, John!
Tom has an amazing collection of Hoover items!
That must have taken ages to acquire, and a lot of work to organize and maintain.
Obviously, a labor of love!
That Richmond is something else. I know you're a Hoover purist but I would've JUMPED at that. Even that Twin-motors AirWay. Those are EXTREMELY rare. I'm sure there's some way to fabricate a new knuckle coupler for the motor driven brush. It was probably some type of pot metal. Personally, I appreciate the AirWay uprights much more than the canisters, but I know everyone's tastes are different.
Looks like you all had a great time, and it was nice of you to share it with all of us here, especially the pics! I haven't been to the museum or Tom's house in several years but hope to get up that way again some time. Thanks again,
Jeff
I still have more pics to share. To think... it was a week ago that I was there!
Thanks to so many for your kindness. I've gotten many notes, messages, etc.
I'm glad some of you appreciate all of it. There are others, well.... what can you say? There's no excuse for bad taste. or bad manners.
More celebrating Hoovers and The year of the staircase!
Last night, I spoke with Tom (Anderson). He told me that that white Hoover WAS made in Cambuslang, Scotland.It was gifted to Joe Cutinella, whom he believes was a vice president. It was a retirement present in 1986..... The "Sovereign".I knew he'd have the correct info.
Thanks for the pictures, John!
I apologize for being out of the loop, but I have to ask.
What's the deal with the Star Trek uniform? Is there a Hoover tie-in somewhere?
