There is plenty of their fans out there. The building on Independence was torn down recently. They didn’t make a high quality fan, but I have a soft spot for them since they were close to where I live. Bout as close as Cairo… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bout as close as Cairo… They are a part of fan motor history, they matter. I have a 12" Signal here that was engineered mid 30s after Henry Tideman's death in 35. It is well constructed, nice condition, and runs beautifully and quiet. I had it in my sale listing of fans that Jim Roadt kindly transported for me to the Indy meet last year. I had $60 on it and not one soul would give it the time of day. Signal and Superior fan lives matter. 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It references two more articles, Superior Electric - The War Years and The Men Behind Superior Electric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
