Steve Rockwell Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) I dunno... It took most of my workday yesterday to recall the name Hochhausen, but then when I was able to follow through on it with computer, that led nowhere... It took me a long time last night to catch up to where you guys were ten years ago. After searching for fans similar to the main image, I finally identified only the Ries fan base at the top, but before posting a snarky reply to that effect, I backtracked in the Old Forum searching Ries and found what had previously been posted... A direct "C. & S." search had provided me with nothing, can't explain it... C. & S. Fan Motor -- Who is C? -- Who is S? https://www.afcaforum.com/view_topic.php?id=57345 I'm scrutinizing Chicago Electric Motor Company, which seems to have fallen off the map by 1895... Chicago Electric Motor Company's Fans of 1891, 1892 & 1893 http://www.afcaforum.com/forum1/30125.html Perhaps its patentee and one of its founders, Barron D. Southard, is the "S", and we're seeing an effort to come out with an 1895 version, perhaps it's a new venture... Speculation... Particularly, the armatures appear similar (I'm looking at the 1892 view, wish 1893 depicted the rear view as well)... The four-wing blade versus 6-wing, no opinion. US463174.pdf The Southard patent date is 17 Nov 1891. The Chicago fan displays 8 Nov 1902, a date on which a number of Thomson-Houston patents were listed... RARE Chicago Electric Motor Co https://www.afcaforum.com/view_topic.php?id=46835 Chicago Fan Motor https://www.afcaforum.com/view_topic.php?id=43657 I think I've misunderstood this part, "You have a clue who marketed it for the manufacturer.", believing it's as stated a C. & S. Fan, and that Metropolitan is the marketer... Where have I fouled up? Edited February 11, 2022 by Steve Rockwell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
