Always enjoy looking at this thread, Tom. Those are some wonderful machines you've brought home from the vault!

Enjoyed taking with you last night Tom, with plans for the convention. As soon as the snow melts and our blizzards end, I need to set up a time to show you what I brought home from the Hoover auction! Some of it is very interesting...........

every color!!

Hi Tom. I'm finally in the "forum" and plan to join. Meeting you in Aug will be a highlight. It was genious how HOOVER made a convertible, cannister, broom, polisher in matching colors. I love them. As Jackie Kennedy said while shopping, "I'll have this in every color:. Are there ANY photos of the Hoover factory inside? Are they working on the place yet? Can we go there in Aug? Do you have pligrimages to your home? I, too, am a HOOVER diehard. You've sold me a few things on ebay over the past year. I'm astounded by your collection. It's INSPIRING. Thanks, John

Well, a stylish lady wouldn't have just one pair of gray shoes
would she? Then why would you expect her to cross the carpet in the same old vac day in day out...

This way the stylish lady could color coordinate her vac to her outfit!!!!!!!!


LOL

INDEED

You're KILLING ME !!!!! I do rotate,alternate, etc.. my machines This big old place has a front and back staircase. 10 convertibles line the steps, like Catholic school. My friends, (both of them) open the door and DIE laughing. It's amazing how people are in my house for a while, notice a 69 here, 70 there 1076, etc. and just "wonder..." but don't dare ask.It could bee worse, I could drink ! all Irish, and NEVER touched a drop. Some think I have a "problem". I can't say "telescoping wand" without laughs. Am I alone??

LOL

Too bad Hoover didn't hire me to write the ad's

LOL

 

[gottahaveahoove]

attachments

If only HOOVER made a lyposuction attachment.I'm waiting. Does anyone think , like the Connie, TTI will have enough sense to bring back others? Do they realize what MADE HOOVEr great lies in it's acrchives? I go to K-Mart, Walmart, look the the boxes of the cleaners, see Mexico, China, and Glenwillow, and become sad. It's hard to even recognize the infamous handles. Thank GOD the round emblem is still around. I think it's the most attractive signage ever. Am I nuts?

 

[camelotshadow]

Well don't that have a massage unit...OOOh maybe that's filter queen...LOL

Bet your right!

Do it yourself

LIPPOVAC brought to you by Hoover!

LOL

 

[camelotshadow]

Shhhhh...only your Hoover knows for sure...LOL

 

[arh1953]

Two staircases? You need two Constellations!

 

[gottahaveahoove]

constellations!!

I have 5, silly boy. I know I must eventually procure a "new" one, but, that's on my list. They are a bit pricy... not getting one with my looks.

 

[arh1953]

I wish I had one......

OK, then that means you need one more so you will have three per staircase! Nothing like being prepared!

 

[gottahaveahoove]

I'm Prepared..

..for almost anything.Can tie a knot like a sailor. There are about 7 things I can do well. I have a lot of doubles too, The turquoise, orange, gold, orange and brown (2) the gold and tan w/ tilt tools (2)A new one would be nice I do like the quality of the new Connie tools, horsehair, far better than the "onboard" brushless stuff. yes???
