upstairs in the soon-to-be HOOVER gallery. It went on a 28. They did away with all of that in the 1960's. Both standard and deluxe models had straight tubes. The deluxe set had the telescoping wand, dusting brush, and a different upholstery brush (the one with the rubber teeth).Later, with the front conversion tools, some had the curved wand/tube. I re-discovered all of these while perusing the upstairs room... TONS of hidden treasures. I'll post pics soon in a different thread.

the 1076 is upstairs at the moment, with the others.10 of them are in the upstairs hall. This was not from AB. This came with a matching Handivac, long bag, handle grip. I'll do some more photos soon. It was 90 degrees when these pics were taken.Thought I was gonna die!I'll bring up some more 'vault cleaners' for a play date with yours.

FYI The 1977 Hoover Floor Care catalog shows attachments sets U5909 (DAM) and sets U4903 and 4901 (Convertible) as having the "curved" aluminum wand. I could never figure out how to use the floor brush with this set! | ||

 Check out this video I threw together with some old Electrolux's I had lying around, in order to show a little VACUUM DARWINISM! Ever wonder where your contemporary vacuums come from? Check out the video...
