I really like the GE vent, the CG and the Supreme. Cool fans.

It's not... I also spelled Ornate wrong too.. I was in a rush typing and made a few typos.

Here are pictures of the GEV.. It's missing the on/off pull switch, and someone had messed with the wiring, I couldn't get the fan to work at first.. I'm going to Home Depot to buy a pull switch and then it will soon be added to the galleries..   |

I think it may be...Winco? I recall the label on Cole's 36" Winco GEV saying that. It does, yes, and that was my first thought, but this one didn't really look like Winco to me. Seeing that sticker, it does look similar to Winco's stickers though, just doesn't have the typical parts. |

Theses are all very nice fans. I especially like the chunky GE vent fan.

I've only seen two Winco Fans, the one you have on Youtube and another on there.. The five blade one in the Galleries of the site I don't believe is a Winco, but the fan has the same model as this one.. The motor housing screws have been mix matched by two different sizes, plus the motor housing doesn't look properly fitted.. So it's possible to be Winco parts mixed matched together and assembled later in the USA by Ryan Sipka Co. to look like an early five blade fan..
The two Wincos on Youtube look alot different from each other..

Yup, all the blades are original to the fans.. I thought the Supreme Original were not original, but they are too..

Great haul! Looks like you got some good ones. Shame the Supreme is missing the blades & brackets.

I'm in love with that Crompton Greaves ornate, would love to replace my plain one with that guy!! Since it seems Wincos are in short supply, just in case anyone can spot details they can use, here's my Winco. It's 36", has an ornate bottom plate, switch cap and blade holders, and is variable speed. I modified a tulip shade to imitate a light kit on an unidentified childhood fan. I've also seen this exact same model, same size, blades and finish, with a three-speed motor and ball-socket mount.  This fan will eventually come down and get traded when I find a New Orleans Centennial (or something else I love) to go up there, but I'm gonna keep that light shade since I have four 2 1/4" fitter shades that match it. The Encon Crompton Greaves I have is now hung just past this from the same beam. |

That thing, Jonas, reminds me slightly of my grandmas old Evergo Montgomery wards 52" ornate GeV with a different light. She also had the plain side of the blades facing down. We're those made by Evergo? Btw my grandmothers old fan was in her house two houses ago and had a bell canopy. It had a green motor and green tag on the side of the switch housing.

Wincos don't seem directly related to Evergo/Union in my experience. I think JW knows the most about them of any of us, I only have the one and only know it's Winco because of JW. The flat canopy just seems so consistent with them that Adam's fan kinda confuses me.
