The paddle has been added to the Evergo Union galleries under the Union section under:
Paddle (Union) Metal Blade Ceiling Fan
I removed the original paint and repainted on the side and bottom parts of the motor..
Check it out..

Hmmm, so it has a 1/2" downrod.. interesting. This would mean that it's early 80s, as I'm pretty sure that's when Union switched to 1/2" downrods.

I removed some of the layers of paint on the Emerson.. Last was green, before that was a pinkish/peach color, and possibly the original finish is sort of a tan (Ivory) color. And under that looks to be bare cast and corrosion in areas.. So what does anyone think I should go with? I say the original finish if it's Ivory..

Ivory finish probably was original. I like these in a dark finish. Maybe just clearcoat the bare metal?

Most of cast iron fans with wood blades look particularly good in black with their blades in a wood finish.

Yeah, the 56" Roundnoses were offered in this ivory/beige color and copper brown.

I think I'll go with the Ivory color...
I notice some collectors of antique ceiling fans paint them in black, probably partly due to the fact that black tends to hide marks and scratches better.. I like the original lighter color better on this..

Awesome finds as always. If you don't have a use for a set of those 36" Original cane blades could we make a deal for the stuff you want from me?

That's an idea.. You need the 52" blades also?

I could use a 52" set. Do you have a complete set of cane in 52"?

I believe there's 4 of them.. And one of the black sets, I'd like to keep, in case I run into a black motor missing the blades..
Anyone else can make me an offer on the rest of them..
