Ultra-powerful vintage fan in operation at an antique store

[rockabillycat1954]

I work for a sign company here in west virginia and we have a very similar fan just outside of our paint booth. i do not recall the name, but it is as large as that except that the motor housing is more bullet shape, but the fan shroud looks identical. not sure about the base, i think ours is a round base not a footed one.

they are surely powerfull sounds like a cesna on the taxi way. or mine does.

lucky she didnt have a wig because that would have blown it south for the winter. or north hehe.

Wowsers, I hope that beast has its own circuit o.o

I WANT ONE!!! xD

Where can I get one like that?

[steviebboy69]

i have a large fan like that, it sounds like an airplane when its running, its quite scary. i took the guard of mine because who owned it knocked it over. i got it for free.

not sure of the brand but it had something like beaver on the guard.

and the name warburton-franki.

i ran it in the house once and it blew the certains of the wall.

I think it could be an Emerson. But it could also be a Eskimo, I've seen them with those blades. Not totally sure though.

I think the motor on that fan is a General Electric, its the same motor thats on my General Electric Industrial fan.It also looks like a Berns Air King or a Whril Wind fan.Also did they have the fan for sale?

It's actually not for sale..You can hear the lady mention quietly that a lot of people have asked to buy it but she doesn't want to sell it as it cools the antique shop so well.

Wow, I think that's almost identical to my fan, only taller. That is indeed what the blade is supposed to look like, and how it is supposed to sound. Any idea who made it?
