Time was when the Hoover was the best and the most expensive vacuum you could buy. My all-time favorite is the 150. In 1936 it sold for $89.50 (almost $1,300.00 in today's dollars, according to a Federal Reserve Bank website on which you can calculate inflation) Tied for second place at $84.50 were the well-established Air-Way, and a couple of upstarts, the Kirby (in its second year of production) and the Rexair (Rainbow) (in its first year of production). You don't think of the Hoover as being in the same price range as those brands today.
