I found this on Craigslist:

"Hoover Baby Model C - Antique Vacuum (Vermont)

I have a Hoover Baby Model C suction sweeper. It is whole and complete in excellent condition... and RUNS. I believe everything to be original accept the cord (which was replaced with vintage parts) and the on/off switch looks to have been replaced somewhere down the line with a ceramic element - replacing the original porcelain. The Baby C was manufactured between 1916 and 1920. Almost 100 years old and still works...

I will be taking the best offer I get for this piece... I will close the best offer process on Sunday April 19th... so send me an email with an offer at show contact info . I will respond with to acknowledge receipt."

Hoover Baby

Nice and hard to find early Hoover.Is bag original or genuine replacement?When was New Berlin renamed North Canton?And would Hoover have changed labels at that time or used up existing stock of items with old address?(Somewhat like using old stationary before printing new for those with area code changes.)
