LOVE it! That's one of my all-time favorite SMCs, and a definite childhood fan of mine. There are three of those (which are 100% identical to yours - finish, blades, and everything) at a local car wash that I remember seeing from when I was little...the fans are still there to this day, but the management of the place has changed like three times. I didn't know what the fans were until I found this site, haha. ;D

Oh yeah, I love the five blade A52. Somewhat uncommon, but very cool.

This one would be late 80s, actually.. probably 1987.

Also, They actually did make a Park Avenue GEV. It was known as the Park Avenue V, model number F52. This one, however, is not.

I posted up a Youtube comment disputing the Park Avenue V stuff, coming from someone who actually HAS a Park Avenue V... There is no doubt this is an A52. Jean made very good points...

I remember seeing this on K-Mart's display back in the mid to late 1980s. It was in this finish with a 5L kit. If my memory serves me correctly, at one time they had THE EXACT same fan/light combo albeit with the cane not showing.
