Well well well.. Look what we have here.. Casablanca New Orleans is dated 1979.. Unfortunately the blades are missing.. The lady said the blades were with the fan.. I will be going back Monday seeing how she said the fan was in a box with the blades. Homestead Whisperfan.. Now I have a complete one without a light kit.. Tat or Carroway Blades

Wow! You never stop. Congrats on the Casablanca New Orleans, especially one this old and in this antique copper finish.
I wonder if the Homestead came from the same house as the Casablanca as they are the same finish and appears to be from the same age.

I'm sure the Homestead came from the same house.. I had a hard time finding the last blade.. There is also two Casablanca 4 seasons (I Believe), with light kits on them, they both are variable speed and ball/socket mounting and of course missing the blades... There are white blades that appear to go to a Casablanca Delta stacked on stuff near the register..
I would guess the Homestead would be around the same age seeing how it appears that they were purchased at the same time..

Thanks guys.. Dan You got first dibs on this.. I'd like to enjoy it at least for a while, and hopefully find the blades, if not, maybe order replacements from Casablanca if they do sell the exact match.. I have all the blades to the Homestead, I just had a heard time finding it.. I noticed it's not pictured, but it's there..

Hope you can find the original blades so the brackets have the same patina. I don't know that Casablanca has parts that old, they might have the newer version of antique copper left though (whatever they called that finish, it looks like copper but I don't think that's what they called it). Wouldn't be a perfect match but would be better than nothing.

For the blades on the New Orleans, I'd recommend a mahogany finish (B202). It'd look good with that motor.
