Is it possibly a Shetland Lewyt?

It looks like a Lewyt, but it doesn’t appear to have a suction control knob, or tool storage. |

Wasn't there also a boxy metal canister from sunbeam? |

Definitely a Shetland Lewyt from the early 60's, it was the lowest priced model they made, no suction control, no tool caddy, probably sold for $29.95. |
