GET THOSE FANS OUT! That is so cool, I'm speechless. I would love that 36"/38" Original on the short downrod if you can get it.
All those blade arms too! Imagine how many fans those came off of! I don't even know where to start with the brands I see there, Evergo, Moss, SMC, Hunter, Emerson, Casablanca, Hampton Bay, and that doesn't even include the antique ones.
In the fourth pic at the shop, I see many interesting blade arms, such as copper Zehpyr arms, an ornate horseshoe arm, Emerson arms, ETC.
Oh, and in the first pic at the shop, through the window, what is that White/Polished Brass Casablanca looking thing?

The one on the left: =SEXXXYYYYYYY. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) I thought it was some kind of Emerson CC at first, but it must be much older. Is it a Dayton? It's unusual that he would simply leave the thousands upon thousands of dollars worth of fans in that building when he left. I wonder why he didn't take them with him? I've also identified some of the brackets, generics and pretzels not included. Any additions? ![](http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i272/goldrushcavi/Vintage%20CF/493-ID.jpg) ![](http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i272/goldrushcavi/Vintage%20CF/491ID.jpg)

I agree with Jeremy and Andrew, you HAVE to take everything. Don't leave a single motor behind.

Thanks Jeremy, I really want the little one I mentioned earlier, but if not I would take either the white R&M or the AB R&M with the 5-light kit. I could also get more than one if Richard sells them cheap. Get those fans Richard, there are people here who want some of them! ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

OMG!!!! Eye candy you said it! ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) I have to admit that I'm surprised even if I knew New Orleans is full of cast iron ceiling fans. Lot of Emerson Longnose 56'' but I hate that kind of weird downroad it have. The Hunter Original 42'' is so cute. I wish it was PB. Its funny to see all those antique fans with light kits on them. Usually antiques fans don't have lights on them. That's a rare combination, a antique brass Original with cane blades and 5 lights. I knew around 2000-2001 Hunter had some brushed nickel Originals but I did not know they had some 4 bladed (1985-1993) ones in polished chrome. ![:o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/shocked.png) But I knew they made some in the 1960s with the rounded switch housing and wing tip blades. The Emerson 32'' on the 9th picture have an 1980s light kit and we can see it have been repainted in brown to look more 1980s. I also wondered if Hunter ever had some Passport in brown. Because I already saw one in a movie. Now I know. But that one with square tip blades and stepped switch housing is rare. There a lot of empty electrical boxes, so we can see that a lot of fans have been taken down. I agree with the others. Try to get some of those fans! ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) You took all those pictures through the window? Is this place closed since Hurricane Katrina?
