I like the cage on this Frost fan

"RR" stands for Royal Rochester. There is an 8" stationary model with the same paint finish as that 10" model.

A bit off the 30s Deco styling topic, but to think this could have been your Westinghouse Tank/Stamp steel guard. Scary. 🙂

I like how these fans did a 1930s spin on the classic look.

Good luck, John. Been a long time since I ran across another. It originally was factory green. Fair warning, they are no treat to do a full restoration on. The chrome plating wasn't cheap either.

Steve where did you find these? Is this a photo of prototype models that never saw the light.
