They're very similar to SMC, but they're not. The arms are similar but different, as are the canopies.

The second fan on top looks like it could a Casablanca Victorian. And the last fan on the bottom is a Charleston.

Possibly, and wrong.

on second thought for that last fan, maybe it could a be fasco?

Dan, do you have any bigger or better pics of the first room? I'd like to have a closer look at the 6-blade.
The brackets resemble large SMC, but it's clear the fan is not an SMC. There's a set of similar brackets at my Habitat - when placed next to a set of large SMC's, the part that attaches to the motor is not nearly as wide. The set of lookalikes is also attached to cane blades as on this fan, but they're white.
I'd be interested in knowing if the design on the motor housing is symmetrical or not. I have two very ornate Tyebs that have an asymmetrical version of that design, while I have several others with five-way radial symmetry.
The last picture is a Fasco World's Fair.

I have more pictures of the ornate fans and the World's Fair, everything else that's all I have. I can try to enlarge that picture.

I don't think that 6-blade is a Homestead - did they have that big of a cane insert? From the way the light hits it, it looks like it has pretzel brackets.

I've seen Homesteads with big cane inserts, but not with pretzel brackets.

I really like the Victorian copy. Looks cool with arch-end blades.

That isn't a copy, it's the real thing. There was probably an overlap between the two versions made in the 70s (metal hub and rubber flywheel), which explains the blade brackets. You can clearly see the K63 in the housing as well.

The six blades one really looks like a Homestead 38''. The 4 blades 52'' one could be a Casablanca Zephyr or anything chunky Ge vents 4 blades 52'' that was usually made between the late 70s to mid 80s.
The second and 3 pic I don't really know. Maybe a Tyeb like JW, have that some one put some SMC brackets on it.
I really like that Casablanca Victorian. It looks better than the VERY First gear driven one but still have the same brackets and blades shape. Is it 56'' ? Very nice light kit also. Does the K63 motor have a blue cover?

It is? I thought they used pretzel brackets. That's sweet.
