Vintage 2-speed Kenmore box fan. Appears to be a later version of the Homart box fan (not to be confused with the belt-drive window fan). One of the most powerful fans I own. Very heavy bladeset. Notice how long it takes the blades to spin down - I shut the fan off from low speed at around 0:30. Has the infamous GE 'fireball' motor ;)
Probably from the mid-80's. The rear bearing was so seized to the shaft that the whole bearing was turning within the motor housing. After oiling it runs like a champ.
Don't know the model number of this fan, but im pretty sure it was made in the mid-70's by McGraw-Edison. Still has the older style motor mounting like on my 60's Eskimo.
This fan is NICE, I think I may like this better than my Kmart P-23. Very smooth and quiet with excellent airflow. The metal grilles are quieter and less restrictive than the plastic grilles you find on most box fans.
Just bought this today at a thrift store. I havent had a chance to oil or clean it yet. Im guessing its from the mid-late 70's. The noise you hear in the background around 0:40 is my neighbors cat in heat. When I first moved in I thought it was a baby crying til I actually saw the cat making the noise ;)
Im guessing this is a late 1960's fan. 2 speed. I dont know if these fans are older than the Berns Air King models, or just a different brand name made by the same parent company. Made by Veco, Inc.
Found this at a farm estate auction. Was mounted in a wooden box and used in one of the barns. 3 speed reversible. Motor says Berns Air King, but it looks like a Fasco motor. Blades are 20".
Early stamped steel model with centrifugal start switch. 12" stationary fan. Lower left cage strut is not installed. I am in the process of finding a new motor thru bolt so the strut can be reattached.
McGraw-Edison Eskimo 2 speed box fan. Missing handle and feet, but its still a good working fan. I have not seen too many fans with this combination of blades and box. Motor is mounted to the back grille.
