The Lawrence Welk Show

Oddly enough, I happened to catch this Hoover Convertible/Model 34 on a 1966 episode of THE LAWRENCE WELK SHOW.

I'm wondering if anyone knows if the show PAWN STARS has ever featured a vintage vac. I'd like to hear their reaction to one would be along with its perceived value.

Re: One Foot In The Grave

There were loads of vacuums in One Foot In The Grave. Victor & Margaret had 2 Turbopower's (U2336 & a U2602), a Henry, a DC01 and a Hoover Compact. Mrs. Warboys had a Lux Twin Turbo Z1010 and Patrick & Pippa had a Lux Microlite

Mission: Impossible

I recently acquired the first season of Mission: Impossible on DVD and the epsiode "A Spool There Was" opens with a hotel maid, who turns out to be Dan Briggs' (forerunner of Jim Phelps) contact, vacuuming a corridor with a '50s vintage Hoover. I tried to take screen shots but the computer wouldn't let me. They just came out as gray squares. If you can get your hands on the DVDs, it's disc 3, episode 1

What Method

Did you use to take the screenshot? Did you try to freeze frame the DVD and then do a PrtSc?

 

[human]

On my Mac, I paused the DVD at the appropriate moment and used the screen capture function (cmd + option + 3) to capture the screen image. The entire screen was captured except the interior of the DVD Player window, which was grayed out.

Electrolux USA - Model LX

DRAGNET
S3 E21 "The Big Boys"
Originally aired: January 21, 1954
Screen snip courtesy of dailymotion.com

Sergeant Friday and Officer Smith are unable to hear the hotel desk clerk due to the noise of the Electrolux USA model LX - or so they thought. It turns out that the man was hard of hearing. Officer Smith comments that he wishes he had such a cleaner that sounded as well.

Janet cleans the apartment prior to Terri's arrival and chides Jack for not lifting a finger to help - only his feet, so she could vacuum underneath.

Rose is cleaning with an Electrolux USA economy model 1453 in silver (1982-84 era).

Who doesn’t “love Lucy” and the handy dandy vacuum cleaner, which was really a Westinghouse. I love mine.

 

[gottahaveahoove]

There were several on All in

the Family.
But one of the most famous is Alice's Convertible on The Brady Bunch.

Three's Company vac is a sad, mutilated model 29. Silver base and red handle give it away but the white hood and bag feel so wrong.

 

[gottahaveahoove]

true. They ruined it.

But, there were others on the show.
Once, "Chrissy" ran a Commercial.... bag not inflated, etc.
They must have removed the motor, as, she moved it very easily. We all know how heavy those things are.

Dragnet.

The Electrolux model LX is a very quiet vacuum cleaner, it would not drown out a phone. To get that effect it should have been a Kirby.

Must have been an early model as I think it has the red lettering on yellow background. But, as it's black and white, not 100% sure.
