Turquoise Fabulousness

And there they are! Classic Eureka canisters made in the 1960's for Montgomery Wards and Firestone stores....such beautiful blue hoses and attachments! Thanks for posting!

North American Electrolux really should sell some vacs in these retro colours...can you imagine a suction-only Eureka Ultra canister with a classic separate Tool Caddy with Eureka's deluxe attachments? Or how about an all turquoise and white Eureka Smart Vac upright?

The promo vase says 'You're Rolling In Clover".


 


So I stuffed it with cloverleafs and flowers.


I've been forever looking for a plastic bunch of artificial clover at the craft shops but so far, no luck.

Did you take my vase when -

-you took a picture of my (old) post office?Just kidding,but to explain you posted a pic of an Indiana(?) post office that had to come from the same page of same plan book as ours.And in your pic if it were here and you looked around left corner you would see my shop.And now you have the only other 'rolling in clover'(money)vase I know of.Looks great!
ps-Has anyone ever found the TV ad for Roll-Easy.I have advertising book showing picture of both planning and filming such an ad.

Is Dave's photo "appropriate"?

He's standing very suggestively ...

Thanks for the explanation, Jimmy.


I've always wondered just what one would use such an odd (and beautifully unique) 'vase' for. Makes sense now it's for loose household change and car keys...


But to prevent chipping I still intend to stuff it with artificial clover since the clover from my lawn only lasts a day before wilting.

My entire Electrolux line-up from the 1205-era. This B8 shampooer/polisher is the one my parents bought new in 1970; the L & 1205 here are eBay finds. I also have 2 more 1205s (at my parents' house)
