So after searching for a couple years I found an original attachment set for my Model 29 Hoover. It has rarely the origial outer bag now the tools and the manual I love this machine ever since I saw it on a episode of I love Lucy as a promo.

I have a model 29, I bought from someone on this forum. It is my favorite vintage machine. I found a DVC brand shake out replacement bag NOS. My mom's girlfriend bought one new, when she got married. She had it serviced regularly and was still going strong when she passed away. Her daughter has it now. Anyway I helped her when the carpet height adjustment broke and she taught me when to empty the shake out bag. Don't over fill the bag, take the time to take it outside and dump the bulk in a trash can or bag. Then shake the bag vigorously down wind........ put the bag clamp back on and you are good to go. I have a garage vac and once in a while I turn the bag inside out and vacuum the inside. The bag still looks new. I also found new brush strips for it, they are hard to find.......Of all my vintage machines, this one is used the most, then my Hoover Model 70 Convertible.
PS That original bag on your machine is absolutely beautiful. They are very rare.......

Congratulations on your awesome find! The attachment set AND the original bag are the icing and cherry on top for sure. |
