12 ft(more or less) Hoover-Doesn't work as earlier ones did.Is probably last of 'giants' from N Canton as it is the bagless with fold down handle.Otherwise known as 'Big Green Hoover'.---Will,New number is 423-297-6918,should be working properly.-Jimmy |

Isn't that half the fun of collecting vacuum cleaners....the shock factor from non-collectors? Right now I have seven vacuum cleaners sitting in my office here at the bank and the looks I get from people who walk into my office....PRICELESS!
Jimmy, I totally agree with John....we need a good "show and tell" of the big green hoover! And I STILL want that Convertible Elite!!!! :-D |

There was also a giant Constellation that may have been reworked into a giant Celebrity.(Sort of like a Chrysler show car could get paint and trim and still be the new show car a year later.)Anyone have pics.I don't. |

You will be blown away. There are quite a few toy vacs, but most of what I saw appeared to be those 70s Eureka toys and the Dirt Devil MVP juniors that actually have suction. He has the big Hoover as well but it has been moved to the back of the newer store. Tons of Kirbies as well (some not pictured), oldest one there so far is a 508 with green bag.

Jimmy’s voicemail isn’t set up and frankly, I don’t blame him. What’s the best way to reach him? |

That store is like a vacuum cleaner heaven from what I've seen.
Someone should film a vacuum based movie there. |

yeah, give them credit for being persistent but not in an over-bearing way. |

I’m more concerned about my comments that remain for posterity, so I’ll exercise my editorial privilege. None of this is worth it and I do have a tendency to overreact. This post was last edited 05/30/2020 at 22:04 |

I’d rather stop now. It’s worthless to continue. |
