There were some Hoovers too
With a couple of Hotpoints and a Goblin Wizard at the back and a Vactric Junior nudging in from the right.
I had an interesting discussion with Jack about the design of the Hoover cannisters. I had thought that since the UK equivalent of the model 40 came over here, the model development would have been done in the UK, but he tells me (and if anyone knows, Jack knows) that the design was done in the US, which makes me wonder why UK Hoovers were so different from US Hoovers.
Following from an earlier thread, the burgandy and silver model at the front (417) was contemporary with US model 55, the olive green and white model (419) was approximatly 1964, and the blue model at the back (507) approximatly 1968.
The red one at the front is a late model Freedom which came out around 1973
