Might be I type of Lasko, I have 2 Lasko box fans from the 50's that both have RMR motors and those look like early Lasko style blades so I think it's a Lasko.I can do some more checking and let you know if I can get a match.

Do you know if that's the original front grill?

I have found out that it really is an Berns Air King because of the shape and it has lakewood blades on it so it could have been a lakewood altogether

this is a newer version of mine, which i will post as a video response (i know you have seen it already, i saw it in your favorites)

Yep, definatly a Lasko. My have had sideline name of General Deluxe, as most of the metal blade models from that era had. Very good fans. One of my first came from my Grandmother back around 1979. That's about how long I've been working on them and probably had 200 or so laskos in that time.
I have a fan just like that one mine is a Galaxy and i think its from the 50's or 60's
but it looks almost just the same but diff. face mine still runs but i need to clean and or oil the motor plz help?....

@foxdyewolves If yours is like mine it doesn't have oil ports.If you can see the shaft from the back of the motor,mine you can't, you can drip some oil there and in the front down the shaft behind the blade.If you can't see the rear shaft you'll have to take the motor apart.You can use Zoom Spout oil or 3 in 1 in the blue can.If you need any more help you can go to DT Vintage Fans.

Yep im pretty sure thats a Lasko. I also have an older Lasko with the same motor mounting, but plastic blades. I have seen those blades on an older Lasko on ebay too.

I think I've bought a couple of fans from you. One is a superlectric and one is a gramercy.
