So I just started working at a Police Auction warehouse which actually used to be a nightclub (which from the looks of it, must have been a fantastic looking place back when it was running!). Anyways, there are two fans on the ceiling over what used to be the dancefloor and then this one sitting on one of the decorative columns pf the railing of what used to be the VIP lounge. It's safe to say that this is an SMC, no idea tho what the ones over the dancefloor are though.

Not sure if the other fans are visible but this is an overview of the dancefloor.

NICE! An early SMC from Wilcorp, probably from the mid to late 1960's. The blades are installed upside down. I would love to get one of these one day. They showed up on Kijiji in Québec but they were always too far from me. I saw one in Vieux-Montréal last fall, painted in blue: www.vintageceilingfans.com/membergalleries/gallery/showimage.php?i=1664&c=36The other one might be a Canarm CP56 or a Banvil Silver Line.

hmm, not sure. I'd have to check with my boss. Not even sure why it's sitting there instead of being up on the ceiling.

I'd certainly check, especially because it's just sitting there. Doesn't hurt to ask.

If it's not hung anymore and just sitting there, it's probably because they don't need it anymore.
