I know Montgomery ward made rebranded vacuums. I know they did alot of eureka.
Can anyone give a more in depth history. Thanks.

I think the relationship between Eureka and MW goes back a very long time. Eureka was making store-branded Wards vacs as far back as the early 1950's...if I remember correctly.

Les,

Wards even slapped their name on two different Sanitaire commercial uprights: the most popular of the two was the SP-8000, which was based likely on Sanitaire's 641, while the Wide-Stroke version, the SP-8005, was based on the 698.
