This is a photo of proposed fans for G.E.'s 1934 line. To the left are two 8.5-inch blade fans, making them the nice 55x165, in black and cream. The units to the right are labeled 6.5-inch. All of these ones shown available in oscillating and non-oscillating versions, same with proposed 10-inch, but 12-inch oscillating only. Has anyone seen one (6.5") catalogued, or in actuality?![]()

I want to give this a single bump, last call, before assuming that the 6.5-inch never saw production/distribution.![]()

GE was heavy advertising on "2" aspects of the new 34 QUIET FAN: #1. The new SMALLER quiet blade designed, assigned, and patented by Walter Upson, was CLAIMED to produce as much cooling breeze as any other 12" LARGER diameter blade. #2. It could produce this increased air volume from a smaller diameter blade ...............QUIETLY. WHY would GE need to produce two models at 8"and 6" blade diameter when the 8" could do the jobto support the GE boasts? Attached Image (viewed 183 times):
