in this year, Shell Manufacturing Corporation (S.M.C), the largest company to produce and export fans worldwide is turning 60 years old, as a celebration of the 60th anniversary of SMC and as a tribute of all the awesome fans that were made and were seen over us as a kid till now, i thought it would be a great idea if each one of us would contribute and make a long video showing a history of a certain model, multiple SMCs operating in one room, lists of favorite models... etc..
i thought i will make an appreciation video of the K56/KN56 model over the years (from early 1960s to the current date) showing how the fan changed over time and their performance over time
the deadline is anytime in 2012

SMC has long been one of my favorite imported brands, dating back to when I was very young. One of the stores my mom frequented had a polished brass A52 with a globe light handing in front of the picture window. I wanted that fan badly!

I like the idea, SMC has always been a great brand in the past. Even when they started to downgrade, they kept the awesome vintage appearance for quite a while. Guess I'll have to toss some SMCs on the ceiling and make a video...

I like the idea but I would not be able to install many ceiling fans in one room.
Along with 4 Seasons, SMC is my favorite SMC childhood brand. BTW I might acquire a new SMC soon.

man not those Appreciation threads again.... smcs are the lowest/least favorite brand of ceiling fans in my opinion book,last 2 times i went to my restore,that smc laguna like the one in that picture i posted(same blade badge and all)is been at that restore on last 2 times i went to it and i did saw it but i knew they are crap in my opinion book so i just left it there and got the infinity instead at the first visit and the second visit/last time i was there,smc still there but i left it there again and end up with the original blades and casablanca blades and my future visits to that restore if the smc is still there i refuse to get it,i find/buy something else. i had 2 smc lagunas (2 36" brown and 48" white/cane blades before but they all gone now.. since i had them,i knew how they perform,not my cup of coke

man not those Appreciation threads again.... Agreed... this one is OK, but let's not let them get out of hand. The video project sounds like a neat idea, but more for one person to do and not everyone on the forum.
