hello guys, I've got a long story of vacuum cleaners found in the trash...I'm one of those who suddently stops when I see anything looking like a vacuum cleaner handle comung out of a mount of trash and check to see what it is. My hoover power drive dial a matic in orange and white and one of my 1968 hoover convertibles(SENIOR) U 652 A, were toghether in a pickup full of trash which wos being brough away from a museum... I stopped the pickup, picked my wallet and gave 20 euro tu the driver to allow me to take the machines. they had both been fully serviced two months before (there were adhesives advertising the hoover service dating the time of refurbish...) and they had then been thrown into the trash. Now they're standing in my cllection. Another one is the hard ba hoover junior( junior starlight), it was on the road woith the trash.i picked it up , brought home, plugged in and it worked like new...people are not very clever sometimes. We collector have the mission to give a good home to the poor old vacuum cleaner that people no longer appreciate. OH MY GOD HOW NOISY THE HOOVER POWER DRIVE DIAL-A MATIC IS.... i'VE NEVER HEARD ANYTHING LIKE THAT. GREETINGS TO EVERYBODY! T |
