Denim Hoover?

[funvacfan]

I'm not sure if this is the right forum. I have a distant memory of a hoover convertible that had a blue plastic hood and a denim outer bag. Was I dreaming? Maybe crazy? Does anybody have a recollection of anything close to this, or do I call the men in the white coats!!!

I, of course, would like to get my hands on one if they do exist.

Well, stupid me! And he's in Canada too! Well, maybe that means I will have some luck finding one up here in Canada.

Guy, mine was made here in Burlington Ontario and they were sold here so you may luck out like I did. It and my Eureka Vanguard were the two "finds" I was most excited about finding. I wonder how popular the denim convertible was being marketed to a younger crowd at the time I think. I remember when they were on sale in the stores but at that time I wasn't in the vacuum market.

Hi Pete! I remember seeing it in the old Simpson's store. I am now on the hunt for the "mod, hippie" hoover! Nice weather we had today "EH"!
