Been wanting one of these for years, and the wonderful Tom Anderson found this for me not far from the acutal point of manufacture in N. Canton! Its just mint and I am thrilled to own it and cherish it. Thanks Tom!

Inside case and all the attachments are very clean and look hardly ever used........

Tom replaced the bag for me, and even the inside chamber is almost perfect. Thanks again Tom, its great!

Jimmy...

I am glad that the Hoover Portable has a good home now. It was complete and near mint. Most of these led tough lives in garages and it is difficult to find one that is complete let alone in good shape. This is the model (2100) that was on display in the Louvre in Paris, France in 1962 or so because the design was so new. Enjoy, Jimmy!

Jimmy that is a beautiful machine and I know that you will enjoy using it. I always liked using one on the stairs as they stood very well on them.

I didn't realize these dated all the way back to the early 60s. This is a very nice one Jimmy, and such a great color!
