Help with identifying a vacuum..

My grandma's old vacuum was passed down to my dad when he moved out of their house in the late 80's. My dad said it was probably a Hoover, and he said he could swear it said "JC Penny" on it. He also said it was tan. My grandparents were not the richest of people, so it would have been something BOL most likely. But I did find a picture with a vacuum in the background, just barely. It had a white handle grip, and a brown flowery kind of bag, that type of design. That photo was most definitely of a Eureka. So I was wondering if Penny's ever sold a Eureka that said JC Penny on the base, and with that type of bag. I also know it was a Eureka because in the newer movie, The Stepfather, when there is a scene in the old lady's basement, right next to the stairs in the background, that same machine is sitting there. So if anyone knows what vacuum I am talking about, or if you have one you can post pictures of, please do. Thanks,
Chase
