Default Swift Telescopes info needed

Hi,
I am looking to purchase a used telescope and have found an "Aerolite
Astronomical Telescope Model 859". I think the maker is Swift but I am
told the scope does not have the name Swift on it.
I haven't seen the scope in person as yet. I'm just going by what I was
told on the phone.
I was also told it's 910mm focal length. Does this sound familiar to
any Swift telescope anyone knows of?
Going by the description it's a refractor since the eyepiece is on the
end and it's on a tripod. There is a Swift 859D but it's a Dobs.
Any help appreciated,
Thanks,
James
