Russ Huber Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 H. Burd Cassel (Crescent Fans CEO) had to pay royalties to Diehl to continue to use CF patents infringed upon. In 02 you see Crescent CFs with new construction manufactured under the Pennsylvania Electric Co. of Marietta, another concern under Cassel management.

Evan Atkinson Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 (edited) That's the only Gramme ring Crescent example, modern and in the flesh I've ever seen. The version I have is different. Uses a drum armature, slightly different castings outside. Somewhat less ornate but even the plain versions of these are $$$$. The guy who owned that posted only a few more times over unrelated fans and disappeared. Guess he decided to heck with Vegas and left with his winnings! A shame though...
