Just watching episode 26, season 8 of Bewitched and there is a door to door salesman (at 8:40 in the video) trying to sell Samantha the Mindmaster canister vacuum. It looks like a re-badged Regina canister similiar to the one that a friend of my mom's had. There were 3 versions of this model, the dark brown being the basic model. My mom had the deluxe version in gold & chrome with the 3 speed selector, bag full check, cord rewind. I don't recall ever seeing Samantha use any canister vacuums but saw several episodes with her using a Dial a Matic.

I remember that episode, I think it might have been one of the last in the series. I don't recall seeing Samantha doing any vacuuming after the house was remodeled and shag carpeting installed. Lots of scenes with the dial-a-matic sweeping the green low pile carpeting. | ||

Ant-Man
It has a Kirby classic omega. It has a weird device that said bag full or clog.
I don't have a pic but it was an omega . I found a pic explaining it. Les

Thanks for sharing this info John - a guy named Jeff Parker shot that story down in one of the FB vac collectors groups yesterday. There was a lot of back and forth over whether this was true or not. He stated that it was completely false. I don’t know anything about Hoover’s history but I would lean toward this story being true😉 please share your feedback when time permits 😊 Also I believe the same Hoover Dial-a-Matic was used on I Dream of Jeannie. Is this correct?

Quite possibly, but if that's true the DAM 1100's last appearance was in the "I Dream of Jeannie" season 2 episode 1 where the Blue Djinn (Michael Ansara) threw it into the ocean. Since it was 1966, Samantha probably got upgraded to a Dial-A-Matic 1118. I don't recall seeing the peacock blue 1110 in either show.

I think the story of the 33 is completely false and made up by some collector to impress others. I have a pink Regina canister that I bought from Marc at the convention. I’m guessing it’s Canadian? I’ve never seen one with a braided hose and the color scheme this one is in.

Ok..I’ve heard the story a few times here and there and found it to be very interesting. Whether if it’s true or not this particular model has earned a reputation and semblance for an incredible actress and a timeless sitcom 😊 Either way it’s a very Bewildering and Bewitching Hoover convertible! Look at the spell that has been cast for collectors to compare proposed facts to that of assumed fiction-Endora would refer to this is mere mortal bickering- This Hoover has had collectors spell-bound with fables and fiction for years which will continue for many more to come ✨✨✨✨ This post was last edited 04/23/2020 at 16:52 | ||
