Hello all…can anyone help one identify the model/year of my Kirby? Sorry for the pictures being sideways. THANK YOU so much for your time and help. :)

I noticed on the right side it has the push on/off switch instead of the toggle style switch. So it's either a model 513,514, or 515. Hopefully this helps. 😁

Also it's either made between 1953 or 1955.

Personally, I wouldn't bother listing it. It's a hot mess.

Oh boy, here we go again with the "I just got this vacuum, tell me what I have so I know it's very rare and I can list it on eBay for $900"

PS: If it still has the model nameplate it will be on the bottom of the cleaner.
