I went through my hard drives and found a large number of my fan pictures. I have posted them in a Photobucket account called "ToViewFans". If you are interested in a fan in one of the lists I posted, L@@k, it might be here! There are also other fans pictured not listed. Some may be for sale. Ask if you are interested. Lastly, if anyone has both the time and knowledge to label and tag these 400 pictures, let me know and I will give you the password to the account. photobucket.com/toviewfans

The fan marked 6blade.jpg is in my possession now. It is a 4-blade motor with a weird metal adaptor ring to fit the 6 blades. If you don't use shorter screws on the adaptor, they will scrape the faceplate. I think the capacitor was meant for use with 4 blades too, as it doesn't go very fast at all with 6 blades but moves pretty quick with 4.
So now there is an address for Royalaire... 600 S. Valley Mills Drive in Waco. Valley Mills is a main thoroughfare through Waco. That address is currently "Automotive Aftermarket Warehouse", a few blocks from Baylor's football stadium and a couple of blocks away from where another fan store, "Fans Unlimited", used to stand. It's a shame I wasn't older than I was in the 80's or I would have made the rounds at the fan shops - we had a TON, but my parents had no reason to go in any of them since we had fans already. Now I don't think there are ANY, thanks I'm sure to the Big Boxes.
I'd still be interested in seeing a video of that brass Encon Crusader (with the switch housing) if you ever unearthed it. I wonder what years these were produced?
I made a YouTube video of the Hall Mark.

eMail me. Do you know the names of all the fans? I know most of them. All the ones that were on the old ToViewFans I should know, and anything else I don't know I'll look up.

Are you sure the black/brass GE vent is an Alaska? Neither the blades nor the brackets look like it. That mounting plate looks like either Encon or Heritage, and the fan looks too substantial to be a Heritage.

I'll be emailing you about payments on at least the Homestead soon, you might have to hold the other stuff for me for an undisclosed amount of time.

I am not the one adding the tags on Photobucket. Rick and Zachary are. Some of them are wrong.
Initially I thought Alaska but upon closer inspection I am not sure. If it goes Low-Medium-High then I would lean more that way. Otherwise, probably not, but I wouldnt know who then.

Well, I don't know when I can get down there, I mean, it should be this summer, but not until after about mid July. I don't really want to have to ship the other stuff, but if you want it out I can just do it all.
