Mark,

The bag on this is obviously a replacement: it appears to be from one of the first model 880s circa 1966. Maybe Jeff Schroff, Sr. (hygiene903) could tell you more.

The model # itself appears to suggest this was a pre-war model (before 1941).

If it has a two speed switch, BUY IT.

Sorry, Can't Help Much On This One.

133 is a model I never heard of before. Could be a pre-war machine or early post-war (mid to late 40's). Either way, the bag is definitely a replacement. Original would have been a shake out bag. I have that same bag on a model 602 that was built in 1981. I also have a model 189 that looks similar to the 133, pictured here.
I agree with Tom, if it has a two speed switch, BUY IT! Two speed Royals are quite rare.
Jeff

Model 259 with the two speed switch. While it has the same side decorations as the 133, the 259 has a one-piece nozzle and fan case and headlight hood. All molded as one piece, and it's a two speed machine. This was the absolute DELUXE Royal.
