Cool adds! Not getting the relation to a Kirby and the sound of music. Surely the Von Trapp's would have had the housekeeping staff use a Miele or a Lux. | ||

Harley!! Your are! The SOM debut on Broadway in 1963, became a world famous movie in 1965. the St. Louis arch also started construction in 1963, finished in 1968 and opened to the public in 1968 and the Dual 50 debuted in 1965. Winner! | ||

For more than one reason, I wish I'd been born in 1965...lol. Our neighbor bought a D50 and I begged my parents to trade in our 505..nope..nothing doing..nothing wrong with the old one! So, I vacuumed for my neighbor once in a while, she was more than glad to let me. | ||

Thanks Mr. Taber! I'm so glad you feel the need to respond with a nitpicking response. This is the 3rd strike in my list of why I'm leaving Vacuumalnd. There was no need for your rude posting. Greg Bushman | ||

Let's start this again.
Thank you cb123 and Kirbysthebest:
The movie The Sound of Music had it's start in 1949 when Maria Augusta Trapp wrote the book 'The Story of the Trapp Family Singers,' published by J.P. Lipencot. That book was turned into the 1956 German film 'The Trapp Family' which actress Mary Martin saw and wanted to do as a stage play. Because of her success in South Pacific, Mary took the movie to Rodgers and Hammerstien asking them to put it on Broadway. The original title was to be 'The Singing Heart.' That show, now a musical, and renamed "The Sound of Music" had it's first try-out on October 3, 1959 in New Haven, Connecticut (and I was in the audience.) From there it went to Boston, and then to New York, opening on Broadway November 16, (1959) and became a smash hit. In the Spring of 1964 production began with Julie Andrews as Maria in the film version, and it had it's opening gala on March 4, 1965. And the rest, as they say, is history. Long beore there was a German film my family had become friends with the Von Trapps. The 'real' Maria was no Julie Andrews, she was one tough woman! but then she had to be to have lived the life she did. However, that's for another post. | ||

Mother Maria.
Hi Kirbysthebest:
As I said she was no Julie Andrews! Anybody who knew her called her 'mother Trapp' and she, along with the rest of the family had dropped the 'Von' in 1948 when they became citizens of the United States. Our family connection goes back to 1939 when the Trapps first came to America and settled in Philadelphia. There were two daughters Rosemarie age 10, and Eleonore about 8. As they were far too young to travel with the family, lived in New York with friends of ours. Years later, my mother and Rosemarie would work together at a hospital in New Haven, Connecticut. But it was the Broadway musical that started it for me, I became a theater buff, and as I've always loved classical, this music was perfect for me. The Trapp home became a ski lodge in the late 1940's and a great vacation spot for me long after the movie came out. | ||

Hi vacerator.
The heading of the post was "Minor correction," and I followed that with "The Sound of Music is my all-time favorite Broadway musical, and it's also my all-time favorite movie." It was then that I went into the history of book, German film, stage show and movie. I followed that with "it was the Kirby company which decided to use all three, movie, Arch and D-50 in their timeline." That's all there was.
So, to quote the late Paul Harvey. "And now you know the rest of the story!" | ||

And................ I think I have all of the vacs that go with my ads, yay!.
And, as far as LEAVING The VCCC Ans/or VL. my advice, and it's only MY advice: Don't give ANYONE that much power!! EVER! I almost left yrs ago.. Some folks love to start a fight... throw gas on a fire.. it drives them absloutely insane when they realize they're not getting to you. So, sit back, post, enjoy, and ignore the TOXINS................. for you'll never ever really be rid of them. Don't give anyone that kind of power. YOU'RE worth more than that. Just my $.02. John
