I haven't had as much time over the last year to collect fans but I just couldn't pass these up. Finally got one of my all time favorite fans, a 4 blade 19 Inch Holmes  Brown 12 inch Galaxy  Another Holmes Box fan  I prefer the earlier blade style but this was also for sale along with the Holmes stand fan |

Neat! I didn't know they made those Holmes box fans with the flower style blade. The ones I've seen have the Toastmaster like blade.

Wow! Congratulation on finding that rare four blade Holmes pedestal fan. I love these. I remember seeing them at La Baie around 1999-2000 along with the two five bladed pedestal fans they sold and many other Holmes models. I see you started adding pictures to the galleries again.  |

Does it have the same motor as the ones with the regular blade? |

Holmes was still selling that 5 blade stand fan with the swirl base up until now. Unfortunately I think it has been discontinued because it's no longer on their site as of recently, and on eBay and Amazon the prices have gone up. |

Looks like 2020 has been serving you well for portables! I didn't know that Holmes box fan came with any other blades. Never seen that Holmes 4-blade model either. Very interesting.

They actually offered 3 different versions of that 4-blade stand fan the white/gray one that I have, a black one with gray grilles (most common), and a GE branded version for Walmart with a different grill (which I also have).  |

I found this Lakewood Country Aire in the curb being thrown away and immediately rescued it. Unfortunately it doesn't work, I'm hoping its something simple but its definitely worth saving.   |

Great save, I'm sure it's probably something simple.
