Default Old Sun Distributor machine

Can anyone tell me the approximate year that this Sun machine was built from the info on the tag.
It must be fairly old to have the address style that's listed.

I found this owner/operators manual online. It appears to be dated 1964.

Thanks Andy, that owners manual does have the same model #, so I suspect it would be around 1964 then.

The stock # listed on the tag comes up as some sort of Military number for a manual. I wonder if this was originally on a military base? It is painted a gray that the Navy would have used.

Zip codes were in use before '64. More likely late 50's.
