Re: W.T. Grant and Dominion box fans

Here is a baby that I just picked up recently. I was shocked to find that there are vintage fan enthusiasts... cool - literally.

I have a Knapp Monarch desk fan that looks similar to that, but it's green.

lovely video

Yes just like my KnappMonarchJackFrost. Colors & all. A fan buddy found it @ a garage sale. He restored it to work & gave to me as a Bday gift. I just cleaned & oiled it for winter storag. There's an oil port @ the shaft behind the blades. Then @ the rear @ the oscillator box, remove the rear motor shell. There"s another oil port 1/2" behind the cover screw hole.- As if you would oil 1 of those small Bersted fans. Question "Up@Dawn"; does yours have a very rattley, buzzy startup sound?

My little brother insisted we record a remake of this ... That's the video response you now have pending, haha. He loves this video! XD

NO! How is this accomplished?

Definately a mid 60's fan. They were coming out with plastic blades then.

Actually made by Knapp Monarch, and actually in the late 60's. I have two of them.
