I’d say around 1971 or 1972. This was a very early design for Eureka’s Dial-a-Nap uprights because of the rocker on/off switch on the hood. Later years saw ventilation vents appear on the hood plus a push button power switch on the hood. After 1974, the ratings plate would have said “The Eureka Company”, not Eureka Williams.

For free? Geez, I wish I could be that lucky. That is a machine that should have fetched at least 20 bucks. Very good condition! Some light cleanup and maintenance and it will be good as new. Sadly I see trashed out, clogged plasti-vacs going for 20-30 at my local thrift stores. | ||

Eurekaprince.... The Rugulator, Vibra-groomer were BOTH introduced on the Vanguard in 1969. The Dial-A-Nap was also introduced in 1969 too. | ||

My apologies Jae. I love that Eureka 2070 tv commercial...just so calm and understated. Must be the last Eureka Williams upright to have that top-side hose port.
You have some amazing Eureka memorabilia. The commercials and the literature bring back so many wonderful personal memories from my childhood. | ||
