[QUOTE="paul, post: 474026, member: 972"] [b]Hoover 2-Tone Porcelain Blue Cleaners - US, CA, UK[/b] Doug Smith posted the first attached photo of the Canadian Lark Model 2942 stick broom on his website. The other photos of the UK Hooverette Model 2944 were posted on Reddit. All versions were 2-Tone Porcelain Blue. I wonder if the attachment tubes in each country were blue anodized aluminum, though, because the US & CA versions' handle and nozzle connector tube are painted; or was it a mid-production change in all three countries? All were introduced in 1961. While there were several other US & CA Hoover cleaners in 2-Tone Porcelain Blue in that era the only other common one among all three countries that also debuted in 1961 was the Shampoo-Polisher models 5460 (US), 5462 (CA), and 5464 (UK). I could only locate photos of the 5460 (eBay) and 5464 (YT vid by Beko1987). The last photo (eBay.co.uk) is the Model 5134 in the perceived a tone of Porcelain Blue. The US & CA counterparts were in colored differently.
