Thanks, Jeff.

So, yours must be the original cream & green 260 with no 'Type'. The square handle was used longer than what I'd known.
 
Nick,

You're welcome to use whatever information from my "Color-Pak" list to complete your 1400-Series list. I know it is less than 100%, so feel free to synthesize your information to correspond with your research.

I still think the best way to get the most accurate data is to visit the McLean Museum of History's library in Bloomington, Illinois, where the Eureka-Williams archives are collected.

I now wonder, too, if the 200-Series information is inaccurate. Might it go something like this ... ?

260-A square handle, cream hood
260-B square handle, chrome hood
260-C square handle, cream hood (Canadian version of Type A)
260-D square handle, chrome hood (Canadian version of Type B)
260-E round handle, cream hood
260-EK round handle, chrome hood

(no 260-DK)
Model-Type 260-B ad showing an enameled hood, so there likely was a 260-BK.
