Hello i was using one of my Kirby dual sanitronic 50’s and i decided to check the date at the bottom of the machine. It said it was a 518 from 1957. So I have been thinking it was a sanitronic 50 for the longest time. The backstory on the machine was a guy bought it at a garage sale. Had it serviced and used it till he sold it to me. Any information on what this could means?

It would have a gray bag with a large Kirby circle logo on the front. The main trim is red (headlight and nozzle bumpers, handle grip plastic and handle lock button) and gray (wheels and Sani Em-Tor bottom). The original power cord for the 518 was two-tone (gray, with red male and female plug ends).
