At my peak I had about 75 fans of all brands and types. I only have a few vintage fans now, all of which are restored and I use. I was going to write more, but I don't want to hijack the thread.

Or a wannabe one anyway….I certainly don’t have the funds to afford some of the fans I see collectors have, but I have a modest collection that I’m really proud of. My two favorites that I’ll share here are a 1900 General Electric “Pancake” fan, and an Emerson (can’t remember the model number off the top of my head) from approximately 1907/08……I proudly display (and occasionally use) them in my classroom….

America has so many beautiful vintage fans!
My son and I watched "Top Gun" followed by "Top Gun Maverick" at the cinema this summer. In the early scene, with Tom Cruise in the ladies' room, we weren't concentrating on the actors or the dialogue, it was that vintage fan on the wall which caught our eye. |
