Hi, can someone help me identify what model number this rexair vac is? From other photos I looked it, those had an alphabetical letter displayed in the name plate - but this rexair just says "model" and nothing else.
I hope someone can tell me how to identify the model number or tell me what model it is. |

It's good to hear the history of machines we know today. Until now, I was under the assumption that Rainbow was always built in Cadillac Michigan by Rexair. Thank you for posting |

Rexairs were originally built in York Pennsylvania, until Rexair merged with Martin Perry Corporation with the launch of the model B in April 1940. After World War II, they were made in Toledo Ohio, in the factory that Ward industries would eventually take over. Then on to Syracuse New York, in two different buildings. Eventually, they would build a factory in Cadillac Michigan, which has been expanded four times
