Yesterday, I went to the Black Friday sale my local Habitat was having. Here are the fans I got: First, is an Air Cool Emperor from May, 1987. The previous owner had painted on the plain side of the blades, creating a sloppy mess on the cane side. It came with a school house fitter, but it's missing the socket. The fan was only $6.00, so I'm not complaining. Nest, is a Murray Feiss FPV hugger in rose finish that I got NIB. Made in January, 1988. When I opened the box, I came to disappointment to find the fan on the inside wasn't as pictured on the box (didn't read the specs on the side). But, this fan does show some of the interesting decor of the '80s. I looked up the UL record listing, and it said it was made by Air Cool. I thought these were made by Halsey? Last, is a Moss Tropical Breeze:

Real cool finds! I do find that Emporer quite neat; something about the small switch housing just looks cool. I bet you could scrape off some of that paint... The hugger is quite interesting; I think JC-Penney sold something similar in the 90s. LOVE the Moss; are the blades supposed to be bent upwards like that?

On the Moss pic, I think it's just the angle the picture was taken at.

I found an old GE vent, but sadly didn't take it.

Great finds.
I like the Air Cool Emperor and I have its predecessor which is very Moss-esque
I have the EXACT same Moss Tropical Breeze NIB albeit with cane.
That Murray Feiss is truly rare and AWESOME!!
