My
Modern Hygiene 240 looks somewhat similar. Mine takes type J royal vacuum bags and comes with filter with the bags. My motor is 550 watts and 4.5 amps x is 540 watts of power. The thread attached shows pics of mine.
I believe kenmore, GE, universal and a few others share parts. I'm guessing early 1950s on the machine. Iirc apex vacuums had power. Mine has okay power. CLICK HERE TO GO TO Lesinutah's LINK | ||

That model would be from around 1950 as that is the year the ad below is from. Apex made machines under a number of different brand names as well as their own including President, Good Housekeeping, and Connor. It would have had a full set of parts in a kit like this one with the President pictured below
