a note - the hood of this Convertible is slightly warped in one corner at the rear, just like the big 'un. Maybe they used the same plastic!

I was wondering how big is this toy? It looks real small, but maybe your motorhome is huge?

P.S. I'm green with envy! That one is in great shape!

You know, you're right! I never realized all this time that it is not a toy of the American Hoover, but is the 652! I guess the name on the opposite bag side is one give-away. Plus, the fact that it is made in Great Britain. I wonder if there is an American version? Does anyone else know??

Hey, Nicholas -

portable's profile picture
The Hoover is about 16 inches or so tall (I've packed it away again, so I'm guessing). It's one of my very favorite things. When I was clearing out my house 4 years ago (and sold 33 vacuums), it was one of the items I refused to part with. I'm SO glad I kept it. I've not seen very many of them.

RJ Vanik has quite a nice toy collection. I know he has the Hoover DeLuxe 63 (the two-tone blue one) and a few others that I've forgotten. The toys are fascinating to me. When I was a kid, Soupy Sales (on his TV show) used to offer a small toy canister vacuum, complete with attachments. The hose was transparent and the machine really worked. I would love to find one.

My fifth Christmas

arh1953's profile picture
On my fifth Christmas in Fort Knox, Kentucky, I got a battery operated children's Hoover upright. I loved that thing, but strangely enough, I don't remember how long I had it or where it went. I believe it was red, and I know the bag blew up like the real ones. When I saw Charles-Richard's web site photo I was rocketed back to 1958. Priceless! Thanks for the memory.

That Toy Convertible is beautiful! They put a lot of detail into that little vacuum. Very cool!
