hand grip
This is a keeper for the hand grip alone as they seldom last in this condition, whatever was in the rubber makes them very brittle - Hoover 119 and 638 have the same problem. Its not beyond the bounds of possibality that the cleaner was purchased in UK and transported by people emmigrating to Canada. Can you post the serial number please? If the flex is still UK and not ribbed that too is a keeper as the outer casing of the solid brown cable fitted to the 262 (previous model) also reacts with itself (I know that makes no sense, but it occours over the cord hooks) causing it to blister & break

Serial number
My serial number list starts at Jan 1953 with J527100, sp presumably its before then. I cannot say for sure but I would have thought they used a ribbed flex at least after the Junior 119 which used teh same colour scheme so this maybe an early model using the same flex as the 262, although that was normally supplied witha grounded flex (cord) even if there was a two pin (no ground) moulded plug on the end
Still a great find Al | ||
