Very cool fans, thank for posting. The prices are nothing to be surprised of. Sears often priced their upscale large size fans around these prices.
Someone remembers the Tiffany fan at something like 600 or 700$?

OK, I get a couple extra bucks for the remote control, but $235 for a standard-issue SMC with an ornate faceplate? LOLOL Builderfan-quality Saturn knockoff for $180, soon to go back up to $230?!?! DOUBLE LOLOL You're kidding right? This is not a standard SMC fan at all and the second fan is nothing to compare to the overused builder fan term. It's a Nadair. It's not meant to imitate a Saturn either. Nadair already had another model in the style of a Saturn. They were very well made around those years. Those prices don't suprised me at all. It's Sears, not Zellers or Wal-Mart. |

Someone remembers the Tiffany fan at something like 600 or 700$? Yeah, that Tiffany fan was really expensive. The regular price was $699.99 OK, I get a couple extra bucks for the remote control, but $235 for a standard-issue SMC with an ornate faceplate? LOLOL Builderfan-quality Saturn knockoff for $180, soon to go back up to $230?!?! DOUBLE LOLOL These aren't standard knockoff fans. Sears sold a lot of good quality SMCs back in the day. Even Canadian Tire sold a few good SMCs. That's why the prices were expensive. This is a Sears catalogue, not a Wal-Mart or a Home Hardware catalogue. This Nadair Designer is rare with the black and brass finish and the stencilled blades. |

I have the exact same spring and summer 1989 catalog. I have been a bit disapointed to see only two fans in it, and no portables one... but still a cool gem to have! pretty nice that you have all those catalogs!
