One of the vendors I buy old fans from sent me an offer for this early 1900s Century Ceiling fan. She says it runs smooth and is doing a video to send me. Its missing the blades and two of the blade holders. I have no idea how hard it would be to refurbish this compared to the other fans I have done. But I don't think it would be much different, correct me if I am wrong. I have no idea if its possible to source parts for this fan, and if its worth anything or valuable enough to repair it. Thanks for any guidance.

How to date early Emerson fans- https://earlyfans.blogspot.com/2011/07/dating-early-emerson-60-cycle-and-dc.html

those are beautiful and powerful fans. I've had one running flawlessly every summer in the shop for the past 26 years. blades & brackets do show up if U R watching and waiting.

Looks like 1912.

They're all 12", the same style, but it looks like they come in 3 different versions. The center ring of cage, blade, motor cover and switch are the distinguishing features.
