Very cool, I saw them on DT but didn't post there yet. I like how they have the tassel part of the pullchain labeled "tassel" on one of the sheets with brown printing. Again, a very interesting bit of Ritz information!

AWESOME.
I suspect that the 200 vs 250 is just a discrepancy. Who read RPM data anyways back then?
I like how the Majestic is ALMOST identical, but not quite, to the Moss counterpart. Same with the Paramount and Progress Lighting.
Anyone ever seen the Second Edition before?

I hate fans with those standard brackets, especially those designed faceplate housing. That's a shame, since Ritzes are some of THE fastest residential fans ever made. They move a heck of a lot of air too. Anyone ever seen the Second Edition before? Like... this thing? Doubt it, but I'd like to find one. One speed with pullchain reverse (on second thought, guess it could be a Ritz since it has pullchain reverse) I've seen them with arch-end tips on variable speed wall controls, and then there's the one with the super-thick "homemade" looking blades in Adam's gallery. Also note that this particular model has blades similar to those of the "I-fan" Dan is looking for. |

I'm sure it's from the same factory, might even be Ritz (doubt it) but it's not the same fan. Blades, brackets, and switch housing CLEARLY different. Motor I cant tell.
We did have a pic of another one with a blatantly Ritz motor.

And I agree with Jeremy, plain brackets on an ornate fan looks off. I DO like ornate brackets on a plain fan.

No, the switch housings are both the same. We did have a pic of another one with a blatantly Ritz motor. Blatantly Ritz... hmmm...  |

No the one in the catalog has an ornate switch housing, or at least the cap. These are plain.

Wow NICE fans.
Obviously the Paramount is like a Progress with a bell canopy.
I think the Tangiers is the fan that was used in the Mythbuster thing right? Note the vents.
Note a the bottom of the 10th page it says: available soon the Ritz 42''.
The 'trim pot' instructions for the variable speed is how to make you fan goes really slow with an adjustment screw hidden behind the bottom plate? Like the solid state wall controls that industrials fans use?

Yes.
I've seen a 6 blade 38"/42" Ritz.
