Yes.
Well, Agnes Mooreheads's father was a minister (preacher), and was personal friends with Boss Hoover. Her family became friendly with industrial designer, Henry Dreyfuss. who designed NUMEROUS HOOVER products. (He also designed steam locomotives, Singer Sewing machines, the famous Honeywell thermometer
(THE Cinnamon bun). Agnes's favorite color was lavender. THey designed the HOOVER Convertible "Special" in lavender for her!! In the movie, "Who's Minding The Store?", starring Jerry Lewis and Agnes (Mrs. Tuttle of Tuttle's Dept Store). the entire line of HOOVER products was seen on display. You all know that end scene, with the GAG Convertible model 68.... They never mentioned the word HOOVER, but, it was there. Every company in America wanted their line to be seen in Tuttle's Dept Store. Coleman, etc. Also, on Bewitched, Agnes/Endora............ we saw the Dial-A-Matic (running by itself) for the 1st time in America. That was HER favor to HOOVER. introducing the New age design, which changed vacuums as we know them. So, kids, that's the story. THere'll be a quizz now. | ||

is it ......true that Ms Moorehead came in time to dislike her 'Endora' character as few people rarely wished to credit her with her previous work such as her time with the 'Mercury Players'? | ||
