The 601 was made from 1953 to 1965, so it would be somewhere in that range, making it between 52 and 64 years old. Here is a pic of a 601 that is toward the earlier part of that range. The bag is quite faded but would have originally been black and red. Also, this pic was taken when I first got it. Have since done some cleaning and replaced the plug on the cord.
