Added new pics of this fan.. Suffered through storage unit that was not climate controlled.. Was able to bring the life back into the finish at little bit..
Also here are videos of it...

Looks pretty nice! The new pics are a lot better; if I remember correctly, the old ones were pretty small and hard to see...

Yup, they were very small.... I'm really not sure if these were sold by Chadwick-Miller.. I had both of these apart, and there is no label anywhere on these.. The motor side sorta resembles the Chadwick in the galleries, and bottom plate is shaped similar to a Air Cool, Chu Pang, or Ju Feng.. So I don't even know if it's from Taiwan or Hong Kong.. The ornate nut has got me leaning Taiwan..

That's always been one of my favorites of your GE vent fans. Thanks for the video as well, always wanted to see that fan in action.

I'm working on the other one... I've had the all brass one since 1993. Before I entered High School.. One of the longest I had around.. It's in very bad shape with lots of rust.. I'm looking to have it dipped in brass.

I was collecting fans at the age of 6.. But they would always get thrown away by the parents.. This one survived because I hung it in the living room of our old house when I bought it at a St Vincent De Paul thrift shop which is no longer around.. When we moved out that house in September of 2000. It suffered a year in the trunk of the car, and a few years in a non climate controlled storage unit.. I have old videos from 1997 with appearances of it, and the rest of the fans that were in that house.. I have to get them transferred from tape..

It really pisses me off when that happens. I'd love to see the old video. It's always fun to watch old home videos. Especially for everyone here if it has anything to do with a ceiling fan!  |
