Wow, nice sightings! Those Supers are pretty cool.

[Jean Lemieux]

Wow so many vintage fans in good condition! Lots of Super I have never seen!

Its always so cool to see the exact same fan as we have. (for the Sanyo Sears in your case)

The base of Superiors reminds me of the ones that Reco fans have.

Wow LOVE that 16'' blue Super!

Cute 6'' fan with solid blue blades. I wonder if that brand Crown is the same as the 220V Crown fans I've seen in Chad that were so common over there.

Whoa never saw those type of grey Supers! Same for the brownish one and that unusual 16'' with the different center.

Whoa that Homlex fan is really unique. Never saw this either. The blades almost looks purple.

That Mastercraft is pretty much like a rebranded Super exactly like the other brown & ivory 12'' you pictured. Smart that they keep it in a bag, that way its gonna stay in good condition and dust free.

I saw the pedestal 16'' version of that Canarm desk fan in a B&B in Toronto last summer. I have a pic.

That mesh grill fan, we had one very similar to that at my old high school. 12'' and looked pretty early for a mesh grill fan.

Ah yeah that 9'' Electrohome is that same fan I told you I saw at my local Village Des Valeurs. Its weird that this one seems to have a 9'' grill and 6 or 7'' blades. The one I saw was 9'' with the appropriate blade size.

Cute little Torcan! I love the shape of the blades on theses. Not fan of the color and base shape though. There was one NIB exactly like that on Montreal kijiji for 40$ for quiet a while. Its not there anymore.

Humm I would like to see a closer pic of that GE. Look interesting.

[philippe1995]

sorry for the GE i cant get closer from it

[davidg]

[philippe1995]

your joke is a joke for teenager david,just lol
if you want to see what the building looks like,go on google street view an type this:
1431 rue fullum,montréal,QC

[Perrey Z.]

Wow! Pretty Cool.

1,2,3 are all Sanyo
Curious Superior in the closet's shelf looks like a Samsung.
The Homelex is a given: Ku Hsing Model KS-D1157C (The C is for the CSA-Approved Guards)
Electrohome is a Sanyo.

[philippe1995]

im just gonna post a pic of the building because it'll be easyer to for you to understand that this is a big building.


ive saw some antiques(remember there were a fan ive told you it was no there anymore)
well in the same room there are 2 other fans in the same position(on wall or ceiling)
the fan who it is no longer there

now the two other fans on the ceiling or wall


a pedestal fan(in the same room)

in the room just beside(the same fan)this one was running when i shot it(really powerful)


now in the church of the building
2 mastercrafts 16"


a 9" super just like mine(but in better condition)

9" windmere

16" super

and now..........................OMG FIRST TIME I SEE A PEDESTAL FROM THE 70S IN CANADA
its actually a MARK fan.


NOw a 6" windmere

and finnally the superior i just reshot

[philippe1995]

please note that the last windmere and superior are not in the church

[Perrey Z.]

I love how close the guard spokes are on the CSA-Approved fans in Canada. It complements to their designs.

The Mark pedestal fan is from 1990. I've seem the same fan relabeled in many brands. It doesn't have any UL, C-UL or CSA approvals so is a somewhat illegal import because it would not had passed any safety board with those guards. I have fans like that, and none of them have UL-Listed approvals.

Notice the cross stands? they're shorter than the traditional cross bases when they first came out in 1982. Also, in the '70s adn early '80s, pedestal fans had square metal bases with casters and the column was also square. Their body stands were big and had multicolored face plates with funky ornated spirograph-like designs.

[philippe1995]

hmm yeah it look too plastic designed to be 1970s...

[Jean Lemieux]

Awesome building! It seems that all convents look the same. What year you said it was built? Around 1880?

Its really cool that we had theses Hunters around here.

I wonder what is the big metal pedestal fan. I love the big rounded blades.

Its cool that you saw some of the same fans you already have.

That white & grey late 1980ish 16'' Super is the grey Super version of my brown 1985 Sears. Pretty rare theses!

The Mark is soo overseasish with its spaced grill, non transparents color blades and the cross base. Look cheap at the same time it look good and vintage.
Agreed with what Perrey said!

Exactly! That's what I was diggin'. It looks cool with the Chrome guards and Cerulean Blue Blades but the body stand kinda looks "cheapy". Still it's 100% better than clones found today that are made in China by Midea.

[philippe1995]

i have more for ya about today's visit!
the first is a 9" super (never saw thoses in blue before!!!! )

the second is a 6" sunbeam(windmere built thoses)

after we got a 12" super in blue(full of dust)

and another superior 16"(the second in that building)

that all for now

[Chris H.]

Love the brown grille on that Super.

Aren't some Sears fans also Galaxy, or do I have it all wrong?

I don't like mesh grilles LOL. Mesh- Smesh. It only looks good in black IMO.
