Question about Eurekas and rarity

[vintage_vac.fan]

I know that I mostly ask for support from the community, but that's because I'm trying to expand my knowledge about vacuum cleaners! My question for today is: does anybody know about the rarity of the Eureka ESP 2068 AY? I haven't seen it anywhere online except for an old Eureka ad and a newspaper ad (kudos to Paul for finding that one). Also if you owns this model, then feel free to let me know!

Updates on my collection: I have gotten an Oreck U4120H2BPD, a Eureka The Boss Power Plus, a Kirby Heritage that I may not keep, and a Hoover Encore Supreme. I'm working on trying to get a Wild Moss Eureka as well. One of my current favorites is the Eureka 1447 upright. It has the blender motor, which I like. It also has a plastic handle. And I am obsessed with that coral color. So that's also a vacuum that I'd like to own.

Eureka had so many sublets of models and every variation to the tool & die seemed to create an entirely new model number. Paul has done a excellent job documenting all their models, and if I remember right Hoover300 was too, or I might be confusing him with another person. I myself have a few Eurekas that do not exist in any other collector's collections either on YouTube or Vacuumland itself going back to 2006 posts.

I doubt a lot of collections have the Excalibur Mega or the Sanitaire SP6951 and SP6952 in them along with the S6982 and S6984 flavors of the Home Cleaning System. The Swedish made Eureka canisters don't seem to get collected often.
