THE ELECTROLUX SPY WHO LOVED ME

FLEA MARKET FRIDAYS #28

Since I'm a sucker for cool graphics and artwork, I ended up buying an old bag full of old vacuum cleaner bags. You might be saying to yourself, "A bag full of old bags, how lame is that?" Well yes, that sounds kind of lame, but check out the fun housewife spy art on this Electrolux filter bag from the 1960's.


Ah, this artist was cashing in on the popular spy craze that was sweeping (or maybe I should say vacuuming) the nation. Just think if there was never a James Bond, Napoleon Solo, Maxwell Smart or Secret Squirrel then you would be looking at a boring vacuum bag with artwork of a plain and regular housewife. Now that would be lame!
