I attached a link. It's likely 1940s era. They usually have a bag the same color as the color they're painted. Yours would've had either a dark maroon bag or a blue bag. I have a red vac just like it but not sure it's a Westinghouse. I think mines a sweeper vac iirc made indirectly by apex.

Here's an ad that shows the Deluxe (silk screened on the bag) that looks like the one originally posted in this thread:

Westinghouse H-10 Hand Vac. Quite similar to yours except that the housing is shaped differently and it has a different belt cover plate. Think mine might be a bit newer than yours but I'm not sure. Although the bag on mine is beige with red printing, I have also seen them with burgundy or brown bags. Hope this helps.
