Christian Christopher Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 This fan used to belong to my grandparents before they gave it to me many years ago. The ink stamp on the bottom just above the tag says “548”. Maybe manufactured May of 1948? It works, and the cord looks original and still in good shape. Oddly enough, the base seems to be made out of some sort of plastic that looks and feels similar to Bakelite, though the rest of the fan is metal.
