old Hoover advertising sign

Thought this was a cool find, i got this from a very old vacuum store, and i wondered if it was a pun on President Hoover being in office? haha

Pun

Probably, but do those two models even match as to time frame? I know absolutely nothing about juniors, but I don't think that one matches the Concept One.

I wasnt talking about the pictures

I was talking about the sign above the pictures. I have a big frame just filled with old black and whites, that wasnt suppose to be there. My phones camera zoom just would not go anymore.

That first vintage Hoover pic I see is a model Lark 12, produced from 1953 to 1955, as it is colored red almost throughout. It was replaced by the Lark 14, essentially a one-year-wonder of sorts (1955-July 1956), but it shares the same trim as the U.K.-market Junior model 1224.

I have a Hoover box containing a Reddish color Lark bag and the paper bags that go in the cloth one-also a wand and a shelf brush.It was given to me by the swap shop owner in Grimesland.He says while I was looking thru the goodies--"this looks vacuum related-don't know what it is-you can have it".and also contained the operators manual on the Lark vacuum--wished I had the Lark cleaner that went with these-was ordered by a furniture co in Wash NC.
