Does anyone know what year this Electrolux 1205 was made? It has a smooth finish with a pigtail connector. |

I think that would be a 1968 or '69 model. It's the second iteration. The very first ones (fairly rare, as I understand it) had a black lithographed plate on the control panel but they quickly transitioned to the second iteration like yours that has the plastic control panel. The pigtail connector disappeared with the third iteration around 1970. Both of my 1205s are this variant.
