I have a special treat for you from a former Canadian lumber store known as Beaver Lumber. Not only this 1989 catalogue has some nice ceiling fans, but my bedroom ceiling fan is in this page. I hope you'll enjoy this awesome catalogue. My Bedroom Ceiling Fan

Wow !! As always, thanks for sharing,
first time I see a catalog of them, I might have seen all of them over the years.
Surprised about their price, I was sure they were much cheaper....

Thanks for posting. I have never seen a Beaver catalog before, they also used the name Le Castor or Castor Bricoleur. I'm also surprised at the rather high prices especially for 1989. C like the fan you have is their most popular model it seems. I love the light fixture is comes with. I just wish it wasn't flush mount only.

I'm glad you like the pictures. I think Beaver Lumber had a non flush-mounted version of my bedroom fan at one point but the blade brackets were different and it didn't include a light kit.

Thanks for sharing, I really like looking at fan ads/ catalogs. Now if I could just figure out time travel I could buy some🤔

Here's a coupon for one of the ceiling fans in this catalogue in case that the prices were too expensive.

$109.00 CAD in 2017 money is $188.40. Wow. And $69.00 CAD in 1989 would be $119.26 in 2017 money.

Going from 109 to 69$ is still a very good rebate.

These Beaver Lumber ceiling fans has been brought to you part by... ...the Beaver Lumber mascot (this photo looks like something that someone would use in a Creepypasta story).

Awesome to actually see all of these in the original catalog, thanks for posting! My God though, I have to wonder how many of these fans actually became popular given the retail price. It must have been a case of everybody buying them using the rebates...
