was introduced in 1957. It was sold until they ran out in 1960 after the introduction of the R and the G. I couldn't say which month they were introduced ,probably G in April and R in October. |

Thanks. Someone else mentioned that it was discontinued before 1960. |

Just because a model was discontinued and another model introduced, doesn't mean the older model is gone. Most brand offices would order 100 or more of each model. The model S, as the economy model to the Automatic F's deluxe machine, was probably available for at least a year (if not two) after the introduction of the R. There were lots of folks who were still buying brand new model XXX cleaner well into 1956 and 1957, because salesmen still carried them in the car, and the branch offices had a large supply.
As an example, in January of this year, all the Simplicity and Riccar cleaners changed models. This is almost eight months later, and most dealers do not have the new models on their sales floor yet. They are still selling the 'old' models they have in inventory. This is why web sites don't change showing the 'new' models for a year or more after launch of the 'new' models. |
