OMG Hans! That 1959 Eureka 260 is the one I grew up with! It is blue and white, correct? With a silver headlamp frame, right? Actually the golden anniversary edition would have been from 1957 in green and white with a gold headlamp frame.

The bag graphic is very rare: a vertical rectangle with the flying "e" logo inside. Amazing! Finally, after all these years of searching! Thank you!

(Now you just need the attachments in the cardboard caddy!)

Im no where near finished

It will take me a while to go thru all the attachments and separate them all , Then I will spend who knows how long getting them all into perfect shape, many have not been run in years so new bearings or either re packing them, plus cleaning ,polishing and waxing, that is the best therapy I know, I can be aggravated and tired, and clean and polish a vacuum and it relaxes me in a few minutes.
