Hey Guys its me again and i have another story for you all. this one is about my uncles lighting and fan shop. He is the manager of the shop he sells Casablanca Ceiling Fans And Regency Ceiling fans And last Concord Brand Ceiling fans and Hunter Brand Ceiling fans for Present Day 2012-2013. that's were we got Are Sierra Fan from we also got the fan discounted back in the day because he is family. Back In the Early 1980s-Late 1980s His Shop Sold Sierra,Casablanca And Homestead brand Fans if i remember Clearly And Maybe Hunter Fans As well.When went to pick out the ceiling fan at his shop my dad asked me which one would be the best looks for are kitchen dinning room So i told him the Sierra brand with the Cane inserts not only i seen the Cane inserts model i have seen but the stencil Style models which look cool but at a more expensive price so we picked out the cane model the original price was around $330.00 but we got a discount and the price was $220.00 which was a good deal! so then he grabbed the box and set of blades from the back and then we were off home ready to install it. The Whole entire show room of Old Ceiling Fans but back then Was new Was like Orgasms to my eyes!

Wow, you've got a pretty cool uncle! I bet that display would have been something to see. I'm surprised that the stencil-bladed model was more expensive back in the day - you would think that adding stencil to the blades during manufacture (considering it's merely a little extra paint on the blades) would be cheaper than adding cane, which actually had to be cut a certain size and then inserted into the blades...both are pretty awesome though if you ask me.
