Louis Luu Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 I have a Porter/Leavitt No.2 badge and a Porter Leavitt No.3. This one looked unusual. Will need to make a badge for it. This one I think will go on a fancy brass table. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Rathberger Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 Big fan of the round base, gives it a nice look. A few connectors and a little switch would finish it off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Herczeg Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 That is a very neat fan! It's always fascinating to see just how much the fans have evolved to even get to the point of which most of my fans are from, and even more so to how they have evolved into today's fans.

The earlier version of this particular model was a single coil. This one has two coils in the base. I am aware of at least three different versions of No. 3. The "Battery" tag which has a heavier casting and single coil in the base, this one with thinner casting and two coils and the third one with the long legs.

Louis Luu Posted August 25 Author Share Posted August 25 (edited) Here is Porter No. 3. One on the left is a single coil....thick casting. One on the right is two coil....thinner casting and the third one with long leg I grabbed off the internet.....too lazy.
