Tell me what this is!The fan in the round cage sits on the base... you can change the direction of the air flow by simply turning the fan cage on its base... easy peasy!

I'd say 1960's Mitsubishi, Hitachi, something like that...

It's Hitachi, single speed from the 1970's Very heavy plastic blade takes a while
to come up to speed. Originally shipped in formed Styrofoam box. (I've got two)
One has clear red blade, other has clear blue blade. Haven't seen any show up for
a long time. Interesting "Ball" fan built into chrome wire housing, not connected to
rotational base. Shaded pole motor.
