Casablanca Four Seasons II or a later FASCO Gulf Stream. No Casablanca tag on the switch housing, or a Casablanca pull. Gulf stream, notice the vents and how they're missing the small holes above the larger slits like with a legitimate four seasons II/III. SMC M-48, somewhat uncommon.

Did that beach house have green carpeting, wood paneling, and as soon as you walked in was a large, open family room? We rented a house with no fans just like that 12 years ago... I'm pretty sure it had wood paneling, and it might have had green carpet, but I honestly don't remember that. It's been probably a good twenty years since I was there.

FYI I know it's a Fasco (the verde one) but Casablanca did make a verde FS II.

What I believe is a FASCO Home Builder Series. Has a detachable switch housing. 42" Hunter Low Profile IIs. They had at least 10 of these in the Cape Hatteras Light House museum.

Have you been to that two story strip mall across from the sand dunes? The name of it escapes me at the moment. In an ice cream store there they had a few Nutone Sea Islands if I remember, though when I was there two years ago I think they replaced all but one of them.

That GEV builder is indeed a Fasco Home Builder Series. They put a bunch of them in our neighborhood if you opted to have fans put in by the builders (we didn't, we put in our own fans) in either White or PB, depending on what they had on-hand at the time.

Nope, never heard of a two story strip mall in the area...

I think that 'Passport' is actually a Mayfair given the ribbed sideband.

I think that 'Passport' is actually a Mayfair given the ribbed sideband. I was just thinking of that a minute ago. I'll fix that.

Nice pics...I like the Hunters. Funny how they used different models throughout the store.

I know I posted pics of some of the fans below last year, but since I now have a real camera, I took the opportunity to snap better pics... Hunter (R&M) Low Profile in Askins Creek Store. The blades are, umm, obvious replacements... Now for Ocracoke Island. I couldn't find the American Spirits Sean mentioned. I wanted to look around for more fans, but we couldn't stick around due to lack of parking spaces in the town area. In Howard's Pub, they had a bunch of Hunters, mostly outdoor models. I apologize for some of the dark pics; I didn't want the flash to create a disturbance. Some Hunter Mariners in the outside entrance: Hunter Beacon Hills(?) over the bar. This exact model was my favorite modern day Hunter when I was younger. Hunter Parklanes: Hunter Mariner. I believe this replaced a Sea Air some years back... And in the outside eating area, they had a mixture of Sea Airs and Mariners. In the Ocracoke Island welcome center, they had three of these Alaska/Broan GEVs. 42" Hunter Summer Breeze. Pretty sure this one is circa 1990, due to the sunken dimples on the canopy, as opposed to the Hunters made in 1991 and after have the three indentations.

cool sightings. The Hunters you think are Parklanes are actually Southern Classics.
