The fourth picture down with the emperor brackets looks very hunterish to me.

The fan with the Emperor brackets doesnt look Huntery at all to me. For starters, they made anything with Emperor brackets, to my knowledge, nor anything with that sort of cane.
I think it's a Casa 20th Century (Westinghouse Deluxe repro) knock-off, and/or a cross between one of those ornate Mosses and an Emperor. Probably Ritz or Moss or the like.
I believe the white Blenders are painted.

Are those canopies on the spinners original to the fans?
The last two pics look like Laskos to me and they look like they have GE vents.
What is a 2nd century Original? (Pics 5 & 6)

Are those canopies on the spinners original to the fans? No. I was hoping someone would recognise what they actually came from. The last two pics look like Laskos to me and they look like they have GE vents. I'm fairly certain they're Crompton Greaves, not Laskos. Note the blades, brackets, and canopies. What made you think Lasko? They do have GE vents. What is a 2nd century Original? (Pics 5 & 6) It's an unusual version of The Original Hunter offered in the early 90s. |

As soon as I looked at those pictures, Crompton Greaves came to mind, as Dan said...
All those fans are quit intresting.......Adam

Regarding the CG... at first glance I thought it was a standard modern patio fan with concealed hardware until I saw the brackets. I can honestly say I've never seen anything like that fan. I wonder if it performs like the industrials or if it was "toned down" with capacitors etc. for residential use?
I wonder how many speeds it had, if it was reversible, etc.

I would like to think it has the same motor in there as the industrials (note the lower canopy) and performs just as well.
I wish I could remember who sent me the pictures.

Well, the motor shape kind of reminded me of a Lasko, but my 2nd guess would be a Compton Greaves given the brackets. Also, notice the dropped ring on the bottom of the motor. Do 2nd century Originals share all aspects with the Hunter Original? I have never seen a 2nd century Original. |

I'm not sure if I've seen the lasko you're talking about, with a motor housing that shape and a dropped ring.
Second Century Originals have an oil bath motor and look . . . like the fan in the pictures.
