Parents and grandparents both had several blankets using that type of control. Note the power plug. The absence of a large flared surface at the point the blades come through dates it to sometime prior to the mid 1970s; anything later would have a more modern plug. Also, a polarized plug almost definitely means 70s or later.
A notable exception to that polarization rule is Sears...TVs I have a 1963 roundy and a late 60's Japanese portable, and both have polarized cords and interlocks.
