Dec 1971: Vacuum Cleaner ad from Hoover

(+Steam Iron and Toaster)

«Merry Christmas.
And a happy new Hoover.»

A vintage Christmas advertisement promoting household appliances. It suggests giving Hoover products as holiday gifts, highlighting the utility of a vacuum cleaner, steam iron, and toaster, emphasizing their appeal as practical and appreciated presents.

Merry Christmas.
And a happy new Hoover.

When you wish someone a Merry
Christmas, round it off with a Happy New
Hoover.
Our Junior Dirtsearcher, for example,
is a gift that comes in handy from
the moment it's received (think of pine
needles on the carpet under the tree!).
And with its accessory tools, it becomes
an all-round-the-house cleaner for all the
year round.
Equally, the floats-on-air action of
our Constellation suction cleaner puts it
on top of lots of gift lists.
Our steam iron's sole-plate, ensuring
perfect spread of steam, proves that, at
Christmas, too, a diamond is a girl's best
friend.
And our toaster makes every morning
a pleasure, since it makes a new kind of
toast: exactly the kind you like.
Wish someone a Merry Christmas with
a Happy New Hoover.
And make New Years happy for many
years to come.
Hoover make things
better for you.
