Today I went with my dad to his work and had to hang around for 4 hours after that we hit the stores. I didn't bother to get pics this time. At Habitat the same Coastal breezes and Encon Casanova deluxe fans are still hanging but on the shelf there was a Casablanca Panama 5 IT with a spotlight kit which I passed on, a later AB SMC A52 5 blade, a 36" Emerson Northwind NIB, White NuTone Verandah II with no blades, and some other fans. At the other store that had a bunch of spinners, Grayton (Which was $50) -_-, 2x PB Slimlines, and some other fans. Here are the fans I got. A 52" Brown/ Brass Fasco Charleston 2nd Generation which is all complete and FILTHY. I also got a 38" Parlour Fan with Variable speed in the same finish. It unbfortunately is missing the mounting hardware.      Unfortunately The bearings on the Charleston are shot, and there is even ribbon caught in the flywheel -_-  I will update as I get them cleaned up. |

Here is the Charleston cleaned up. It is form June, 1983. My AB one is one month younger.    [/QUOTE] The clamp for the canopy is screwed up as well as the canopy, the bottom is all bent up for some reason. But now I got it fixed for the most part. The Ribbon that caught in the flywheel actually removed most of the paint on the bottom of the flywheel. A sign it was ran and ran for a while like that. I am going to hang this fan up tomorrow for a test and I will finish up cleaning the Parlour, which is from April, 1981. And will hang that as well. |

The canopy is easy to be bent back
