Moss Heirloom Deluxe?

The fan is definitely Moss-like in appearance.  If I may ask, from where did this picture originate, and what is that fan in the background?

whats with the big red "4" on the pic?

[Adam D.]

Craigslist ad.. Not sure.. Second pic of same fan.. I saw the post on the FB kids and it's not the same fan he has.. May be a Heirloom but it's not the same, assuming he's referring to the AB thin model he found recently..



The other fan in the background is this.. What ever this is..

That housing seems chunkier than standard HFD's, but it could still be one.

[Adam D.]

There's no such thing as a standard Moss Heirloom Deluxe, there were too many variations of both 4 and 5 blade versions that were made, and there are still odd ones popping up.. The thinner model seems to be more common, but they are not standard..

From this CL ad.. There's more fans and another Heirloom:

Sold probably?

[Adam D.]

Yes.. Sold to me.. They did a shabby job packing it and arrived damaged.. They left the light kit on it and the down rod and canopy.. Sent them instructions on how to disassemble and pack and they didn't follow them too well.. I paid them much more to convince them to go out of there way to take down and pack.. Good thing nothing was broken that thee ol rubber mallet couldn't handle.. I'm suprised none of the glass shades didn't get broken, even though I told them to remove the light kit completely and that I didn't even want it.. Fixed it up very nice, and hot glued the screen back on the grills and this thing looks beautiful.. And yes, it's a Moss Heirloom Deluxe model HF D5100 Series.. Both the label and serial number have 81 in it, which makes me think this fan is from 1981.. Made in Hong Kong.. this thing is heavy and chunky... Defiantly an early 80s quality product..

Woah. You can't even tell that happened!

[fancollector12]

I would have freaked if a fan came to me like that. You should tell them about it just so they don't mess up anything else. It's nice that you got it, and even nicer that you were able to get it back to the way it should be!

Wow that really got beat up in the shipping, but the finished piece looks great!

Here's the video.. Pics are to come.. I love the chunkiness to this fan.. Looks like it's the same make who ever made Tyeb.. Heavy cast iron motor that weighs around 30lbs..
