livingroom fan, not sure what kind it is. It doesnt work and might be replaced soon, so might be up real cheap or for basically nothing.

The last one could also be Codep. They used the same brackets.

I think the last fan is a later Antica (which some argue whether or not is Codep). If there is a little sticker labeled "REVERSE" under the reverse switch, it definitely is. Most likely the capacitor is shot - most Anticas I've come across have had capacitor issues. If you replace it, they are BEASTLY fans and run like a hurricane on high.

yes th is a reverse switch above the little black switch for that. I am unsure how to fix that, we got it in 1984 or 85 since we moved into the house in 1983. I do remember it being a awesome fan, it stopped working about 4 years ago.

my mom said it was a house warming gift from my step grandparents around the time we moved in or so. I think it came from Payless Cashways which was a hardware store around here in the 70s and 80s. I think its a WindSong because when I saw the box on here, it looked very familiar. That was so long ago!

Those are very neat fans. My favorite is the SMC.

If it was Payless Cashways, possibly sold under the Bahama brand?
