Hey folks,
Just picked up this little beauty for the grand total of £10. It's dated April 1970. It came with the full set of tools and the manual. Also in the box were a complete set of Hoover Junior tools. I believe this was Hoover's budget cylinder at the time. It's actually very powerful and incredible solid - much more so than the TOL Freedom's from just a few years later. It's also very quiet. Overall, very happy with this :)

417G
good catch there Chris, these are quite rare. Its the last iteration of a cleaner first sold here in 1953 - US readers will recognise it is the Hoover Holiday. I have only seen two other of these on ebay in the last 13 years (My God is it REALLY that long!) and I snapped up one of them.
From the introduction of the constellation this was Hoover BOL canister although at first it was not that BOL in price. It soldered on through the 1960s with little more than colour changes, until being updated by the 427, although really apart from a style update its not all that different. Chris, could I ask a big favour for a scan of the instructions please? Now you will have to get a Junior to go with those tools. And ear defenders LOLOL Al | ||
