My uncle had a Constellation that I don't see here in this thread. It had a creamy, pastel yellow top and a tan base. It was the version where the red Hoover logo under the hose connection sat over a metallic panel.

When I was still living in Annapolis his daughter gave to me when he passed away. It was not in great shape but I was happy to have it since I was named for him. He's the same uncle I've talked about before who had quite a few vacuum cleaners, including a Hoover 913, the Constellation, an old Royal upright and some other stuff.

I had kept it stored in my parents' basement when I moved to Los Angeles in 1980. In 1992 when we had the VCCC club meeting in Illinois [where the heck is Alex Taber btw?], I came first to my parents' home for a couple of days. Billy Lipman and Roger Proehl came to visit and pick up a few old vacuums I had there including the Constellation.

Anyway, was just noticing that I did not see it here.

[QUOTE="electrolux~137, post: 132088, member: 400"] My uncle had a Constellation that I don't see here in this thread. It had a creamy, pastel yellow top and a tan base. It was the version where the red Hoover logo under the hose connection sat over a metallic panel. When I was still living in Annapolis his daughter gave to me when he passed away. It was not in great shape but I was happy to have it since I was named for him. He's the same uncle I've talked about before who had quite a few vacuum cleaners, including a Hoover 913, the Constellation, an old Royal upright and some other stuff. I had kept it stored in my parents' basement when I moved to Los Angeles in 1980. In 1992 when we had the VCCC club meeting in Illinois [where the heck is Alex Taber btw?], I came first to my parents' home for a couple of days.
