What wonderful pictures!

Thanks again for allowing us to see all your goodies! It's amazing what you've been able to find; you might indeed locate Jimmy Hoffa after all! In fact, I'm betting that the Lindbergh Baby has been playing with those toy coffee cans!

Hope you can get some relief from your headaches. Sending positive thoughts and energy to you!
 
Thanks, guys.


It is amazing when you think of all the "stuff" we find. As far as the lasundry machines,  "over here",  we never really had HOOVER washers and dryers like "across the pond".  We mostly had the portables.


  These Maytags are wonderful. Someone mentioned me having a museum.  PLEASE!  I'd only be a self-proclaimed curator.  I have a few degrees, but none in Museum Studies.  I just have a collection,  a 'gallery' at best.


  Stay tuned.  More pics coming soon.  I hope you're enjoying them.

John, if there were a HOOVER museum you would be more than qualified to run it! Your house is better than a museum though, because it is a place where the vacuums can still "live" normal lives and be used, rather than being placed on podiums etc...

I would so love to see your collection in person one day. If you would have me!
 
I think we'll look at stick vacs next.

I have loads of them...... various styles and colors.


  Just yesterday, I got a cordless Windtunnel stick vac.  It doesn't have a maek on it.  The brushroll was loaded w/ hair.  OUTSIDE,  I took care of that... PERFECT.  These are very costly, complete w/ battery.  I only paid..... (almost died).. $13.00   uhuh !!


  Then, I spied with my little eye,  a black Brushvac... perfect condition.  It, too, was only $12.00


  I'm amazed at what people will discard!


  Plus, I'm going to pay a tribute to the Brits....... sharing all of my HOOVERS made on the other side of "the pond".

Hoover 29 & 63

I know that the 63 added the wrap around furniture guard and the paper bag insert--but my question is: Are there differences in the motors and overall design of the Hoovers 29 & 63?
 
Oh, Janine,

So sorry to not have answered your motor question.
Yes, the motors are all the same. Sometimes the bumper guard was half, other models were wrap around.
It was the same way with the Convertibles: one model had no light, no handle grip, half a bumper, snap bag. But, the HOOVER motor was the same. They used to call these the Convertible "Special".
The Handisac vacuum "family" all had the same motors as well.
I hope this answers your question. Again, sorry for gertting back to you so late.
John
