Should have said......

Obviously production was halted by WW2!

Hey everyone - just thought I'd let you know I've now found out which book the design process pages are from: it's Henry Dreyfuss' own book 'Designing for People' - see the amazon link below!

Great!

Thx for the tip - I got a copy for $8!! I love books on industrial design and industrial designers - have a dozen or so. This will make an excellent addition to my library!

Has anyone else noticed....

The two cleaners appear to be from different countries- a British 612 and an American 62/3 type. The cable hooks and bags give it away

No problem, guys - I was in the college library the other day, and I came across 'Designing for People' in the design section...I flicked through it to see if it had any Hoover-related info, and came across that double page which looked very familiar! I suppose I should have guessed it would be in there before now, but I never thought to look...
