A friend is picking this up and storing until i get back to California this summer. I saw it on Craigslist and as luck would have it in the same neighborhood as an old friend...who is an object collector himself.
Wasn't really on my list but I went to the trouble because it probably would have been trashed and i have never seen one in my thrift store travels before...and the green, gotta love the green! |

In the US-the above pictured Hoover Jrs were called "The Hoover Lark?" Neat little vacuums-would like one-or more!Have a 115. |

Interesting that in the UK we never had a Hoover cleaner which was the same as that Lark in reply #3. Our Junior 119 & 1224 was smaller than your Lark. |

this must have been the most loved vacuum of all over here in the Uk back in the day it seemed as though every home in the country had one they were everywhere small but efficient and well suited to the smaller Uk home my parents bought one back in 1963 [the second incarnation in grey and white ]i can still remember the smell of newness as my dad unpacked it. After only a fiew weeks use it met with its first accident it fell down the stairs and the small spring loaded clip on the handle that supports the bag snapped of mum made a temporary repair with a bit of elastic .mum died in 2008 thats when i got the machine and there was the bit of elastic still suporting the bag 45 years later
