Hey everyone.
I can’t really find anything on this apex. There is no model number on the information plate, nor any info on vacuumland that I can see.
Would anyone happen to know what model this is? Or year? It’s cool and will be restored this week.

Thanks in advance for anything you may know.

If I had to venture a guess, I'd date it as just slightly pre-war.

Mid 1930's. It has the same grip and switch as my Apex "Which-Way", which was the deluxe model.

Ah yes

I also have the Which way! Button top two tone bag. Neat machine.

very cool

I've never seen that one ?
It has to be 30s though judging by the grip and overall appearance.
Are you selling when done or keeping ?
I may be interested.
Is the knob a height adjusting knob ? It may be missing a part...not sure.

Looking at the name plate on the front I'm guessing Apex model 57 or 58.

They made this under the name Majestic as well, with a sliding tool door on the high end model. Going by the first photo below, you can barely read the badge where it says apex, yet it has the door on the top of the nozzle. I think yours is a later model where they started to phase that out(also, hence the special switch).

Majestic: www.vacuumland.org/cgi-bi...
Photo one is of the apex model with the door, photo two is of the majestic ad.
