Rare 1950's HOOVER Vaccum Retail Display Sign!

[modernhipster]

Hey gang,

Happy to find a collector's club of vintage carpet suckers! I just picked up a rare retail advertising sign made for Hoover in the mid 50's. I pulled it out of the attic of an old hardware store and it's a real gem. Quite rare.

Anyway, it's for sale so if you want to check it out, I've got it listed on eBay with no reserve. I was really tempted to keep it because I love the Hoover logo and anything else designed by Henry Dreyfuss but thought I'd offer it up to somebody that would really appreciate it.

Here's the link:

Thanks for looking and good luck!
PS: I own a 60's airway upright vac (looks like a rocket ship). I use it as a decorator piece in my home and love the space-race look of it.
