I love how they've taken the wheels off of the L, I guess they don't want it to roll off the table.
Also that looks like a model LX since it doesn't have the rear axel on the runners. LXI would have a metal piece welded to the back end of the runner that the axel went through.

145 crabs,
And they can't even have the lamp shade centered on the vacuum! Some vacuums were BUILT INTO tables or foot rests, that lamp should be an attachment for the power nozzle port!

The first LX had the Yellow Electrolux inserts on the chrome strips, the hose connection and the cover over the cord plug were polished metal. The later LX had just the plain Electrolux aluminum or chrome strips, the hose connection and cover over the cord plug were painted.
Attention Jimmy ...
You should have Freddy make up some Electrolux lamps, cocktail tables, and perhaps other household items and sell them to vac collectors using your machines that are in tough shape!
Thanks for the reminder about the last LXs, Ray. I'm not all that familiar with them or the LXIs, so I often just mistakenly call the machines with the red and yellow wordmark LXs and the ones with the aluminum wordmark LXIs.

True model LXI
This is what a true model 61 looks like on the bottom. If it doesn't look like this, it's a model 60.

The LXI also has a swing-open cord winder.

Swing Open cord winder
First launched on the LXI in April, 1955. There is also a cord clip on the side of the vacuum to hold the cord - preventing it from accidentally rewinding if pulled.
