Hi folks,

Over the next few weeks, I shall be posting the catalogue and brochure I have scanned in. They're mostly Argos, but make for some interesting reading.

Watch this space.

First up, Argos Autumn and winter 1985

Thanks for uploading these Chris! How come there were never any Numatic's in Argos catalogs up until about 2005?

Numatic started making apperances in Catalogues and shops like Currys and Comet in the late 90's. About 1998-99. Prior to this, they were purely aimed at the commercial market.

Ty for posting Chris! Looking forward to the next!

The Moulinex hand held has been out for many years before the 1980s. Available in some unusual colours such as red, yellow and even a combo of yellow and brown.

That remington handheld looks an odd thing! Are they scrubbing brushes/wheels on the back?

I was about to ask the same thing - plus the odd name!

My book arrived today that I ordered from Amazon UK - "The Vacuum Cleaner - A History," by Carroll Gantz. I've found it really impressive.

I didn't know for example that the Black and Decker dust buster design isn't actually Black and Decker.... Quite an impressive book and a must for others on here. There's already a thread about this but in the archives (see www.vacuumland.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-...)

Amazon UK are also offering the Kindle version of this.

That's it for tonight, folks. I have some more Hoover brochures and some Lux, Philips, Goblin, Panasonic and Hitachi brochures to post too. Also, keep a look out for some old Currys and Comet leaflets

Wow so many memories! Miele making a start in the market, AEG being king, Dyson coming on the scene, ticking off the turbopowers that I've owned, and any other machine!

Great job, thanks for sharing!

Gratitude

Thank you Chris. I must suggest I thought you did it because you wished to share your wealth of knowledge and experiences, not for the gratitude. Can you imagine what 372 messages of thanks would look like?

not for the gratitude

turbo500's profile picture
I didn't do it for gratitude, but a "thanks for your effort in spending hours of your life when you could be doing something much better" is still appreciated. It's polite to thank people when they do something you like or are pleased about.

Well this is true, but as I was alluding to, 372 messages of thanks would be rather a lot to scroll through. Rest assured that from my end, your efforts are much appreciated.

Brilliant! I've never seen an electro kinetic in the flesh before.

I shared the full page Grattan Vax 121 as on Vax UK's Facebook wall, hope you don't mind. They like things like this! (Its the only education they get of how great their company once was!

Wow, that Lux brochure, that is wonderful. :D

Look at that, Hoover could actually afford to be classy and use photographs for their brochures! Not the same can be said about Electrolux. Bless Lux, they tried. HA ;)

Also, below this is the first time I noticed a man in the vacuum ads.  So, was it the 80's when society decided it was ok for men to help with housework too?!  About damn time!

Those brochure scans featuring the lux Contours were from the 90s (I know, cant tell at all, lol!)

So the 90s must of been the time when men did house work haha.

 

Oh and thankyou Chris, these are wonderful. By the way, is that 98 one with the sewing machines and overlockers on at the start the one I sent you? Just out of Curiosity. I am sure I have that one on my computer, haha.
