Good Evening Old Sports! Lately I have been wanting different Fans, besides the Emersons, R&M and So On. As many of the American fans I love so much are out of my price range. I decided to shop over seas. I found this Little Jewel in FRANCE. Got it for a great price too. It has been in storage for many years and the owner believed it was early Fifties. It is a C-frame, kind of looks like a moon. The chrome tab on the bottom adjust it. I love the simple cage design with only two rings. The Airplane style blade is also very cool. After Sophie and I oiled it up and gave the blade a couple of turns to fire it up, it took off. Now a god cleaning is at hand. (I did have to use a step up inverter,for voltage is 220)Hope everyone enjoys the photos. Attached Image (viewed 837 times):

Nice. Can you post a photo of your step-up inverter? I have a Veritys fan I've been wanting to test.
