I found this hose on the curb and it looks like the raw hose would fit some Kirby ends I have. I need a utility hose so this would work good.
I plan to cut off the existing ends and toss them.

Does anyone knows what this goes with?
The word by the latch says 'PRESS'. Plain plastic, not bakelite or such.
Want to check to make sure this is not a rare piece that someone needs or could use here.
I pulled off wads of duct tape off to get the picture so it is a sticky mess now.
Please let me know.
Thanks...

Hose?

 It's a non electric hose from a mid 60s Rainbow and would fit older or newer. Not rare. Use caution with wire when cutting ends.

Thanks Jimmy.
This makes sense as 2-3 years ago I did scavenge a mid-80s Rainbow of the same color from this same area, possibly same house.
I will see if I have the contact info of the person who came and got the vac to see if they want the hose. If not I will cannibalize it.
Thanks again!
