Beautiful fan, Jean! Glad the seller was able to deliver it to you. Hope you can free up the bearings a bit; I pretty much second the ideas already suggested to remedy this.

There is not much improvement that have been done since. The only little difference is that before even on the second lowest speed (75 rpms) it had difficulty to start for the first time on that speed. Now it can start by it self without having to use a higher speed to give it a kick but it's still very hesitant on the start up on that speed. The slowest speed still stalls out.
I'm obligated to oil it by the top since it does not seems to accept oil by the bottom.
I tried the variable speed control. It can keep moving at a much slower paste than 75 rpms but will stall out too if I put it too low even if the low speed adjustment screw is not too slow.

Nice score Jean! I remember there was a deli restaurant I used to go to as a kid that had 3 or 4 of these in white, very cool fans!

Updates on this fan.
Unfortunately I haven't been able to unstiff the bearings of this fan even after more than a month that I've had it. I finally decided to make a video of it. The video itself is only six minutes but there an extra four minutes at the end to show in details the originals packaging and owner manual it came with.
Enjoy and comment.
