Nadine Thiel Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Does anyone recognize this fan? It came without a cage or any other identifiers. I'd appreciate any photos of the cage or catalog images. IMG_1949.HEIC IMG_1950.HEIC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm unsure if that base you have is original to the fan though. That's my guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadine Thiel Posted January 4 Author Share Posted January 4 Thanks. Another oddity I forgot to mention is that the front half of the motor casing appears to have been painted a pale mint green originally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Varleta Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Yeah, a light minty green was indeed a Star Rite color and the motor case & blades look Star Rite-ish too. Those fans were manufactured by Fitzgerald in Torrington, CT. I agree with Alex on the base - never seen one like that on any fan. It looks more like an old lamp base.
