What did Galvin Electric fans share in common with United Electric Mfg. Co. fans before either were absorbed?? 10 years of manufacture....ONLY one decade.

Thanks for posting this. I brought this fan home today and was looking for information on it. It will be cleaned up and gone through mechanically. Hopefully, I can get it running 👍

Yours dates late 20s-1930s with that guard design. Nice not so common DC model. You will need a full wave bridge rectifier to run it of the wall at 120 VAC. Brace yourself as the fan is wound for 110 VDC. She is going to be a Tasmanian devil on high speed on 120 VDC.

Thank you Sir. Looks like I got some homework to do on this one but that is half the fun. I thought that round over style cage looked like 1930’s. Love the split neck for wall mounting. I will have to find a spot on the wall over my work bench. Thanks again.

4 amp 1000 watt is overkill. Split neck= desk & bracket feature. 🙂

It seems like you had a timeline on Galvin at one time Russ. I thought I wrote it down but can’t find it. I have the Galvin that copied Emerson, the adjustable oscillator, & the post lawsuit oscillator.

1922-32. It appears their first desk fan was the stationary 10" introduced in 24. The Galvin Emerson patent infringing oscillators hit the market in 25. In 26 Galvin has a whole new marketing approach introducing the Jack Frost badge trademark name. Those patent infringing Galvin oscillators may be in a very narrow window of 25, maybe 26 as well?

Hey Russ, my earlier AF-10 which is single speed does not have the patent pending, however it’s twin AF-10 which is three speed does.

The Emerson oscillation infringing patent models it appears were introduced in 1925. Being Stan has an infringing oscillating model without the "Patent Pending" on the badge, they had to of remained on the market it appears into at least 27. Emerson won the oscillation infringement case against Galvin dating May 17, 1927. The infringing Galvin patent was issued August 9, 1927.

So it appears I have this reversed. The single speed is probably the later of the two. If memory serves me correctly the one that imitated the Emerson Junior was one of their later fans.

I also have a Galvin ceiling fan which is obviously a rebadged Diehl.

The earlier models are not a joke, they are very well constructed nice running fans. I have the 10" non-oscillator with later base mounted switch and brushless early oscillating AC model.

The bridge rectifiers that you recommended worked Great. I was able to complete my project and learned something new. The fan runs within specs.
