Steve Butler Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 These are the only pictures available. I’m questioning the single piece stamped blade for one thing. Couldn’t find a similar one in the gallery. Thanks for any info. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Rathberger Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 Looks correct to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Michael Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 I just passed on the oscillating 8" model on ePay as a 'bargain' BIN of $25 + about the same shipping this morning. You can look at it for a comparison. . Only because the bottom paper label's intact, really too new for my collecting.... I looked back, someone snagged it. It has this cage/blade, but obviously a different motor. However, from what little I've seen in these, there is a lot of variation among the models.

Russ Huber Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 Westinghouse 8" Whirlwind fan introduced to the market 1917 with either an AC or DC option. Its last season on the market was 1923. 5 hours ago, Steve Butler said: These are the only pictures available. I’m questioning the single piece stamped blade for one thing. Couldn’t find a similar one in the gallery. Thanks for any info. The new Westinghouse 8" Whirlwind fan with universal AC-DC motor for either current introduced to the market 1924. I still see it offered in electrical trade in 28. Below is its predecessor on the market 1917-1923 offered in either alternating or direct current.

Steve Butler Posted May 18, 2023 Author Share Posted May 18, 2023 Thanks Russ. I didn’t think about it being a newer Whirlwind version. I have one that is 27-32 volts DC. I might as well get this one to go with it. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Huber Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 I had 2 of them at one time, both went bye bye before I could break one down. Cool radial commutator like some of the 19th century fans used. The images are from past post on the old website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
