Hello! I'm posting this for fan enthusiasts.

This used to belong to my grandfather. As a little boy in the 1970s, I remember him keeping this on top of his behemoth analog TV cabinet, facing his recliner about 10 feet away. It's small. The blade is about seven inches wide. No on/off switch, just a plug. He used it religiously. When he passed, I requested it as a memento. Sure enough, it had been packed away for decades but was found. It still works, but I keep it safely retired.

Pete

Looks a lot like a Superlectric if there is no brand name.Kind of odd combination of 1930s open guard,1950s motor housing and mid-1960s plastic blade.Westinghouse had plastic blades as far back as ~1954.
