Cool Vintage WIZARD Spider Web Front Electric Fan

Vintage Collectibles : Fans

 

There is nothing like the whir of an old fan on a hot summer day! This one is a Wizard, by Bersted Manufacturing Company of Fostoria, Ohio and Toronto, Canada. It is a 105-120 volt, 55 watt, model 45K-60 cycle, and has the cool spider web look front screen!

This has an oscillating arm on it; however, at this time, it doesn't turn while running. There are 3 speeds, and the head can be tilted up or down by adjusting a wing nut on the side. The cord is three prong.

The unit itself is matte black with some chrome and other silver toned metal parts. There is rust on it; but should clean up pretty well... i just havn't had the time to scour and paint it yet, so we are pricing accordingly.

WARNING: OLDER DESIGNED ELECTRIC FANS ARE VERY DANGEROUS. THE SPINNING BLADES ARE ALMOST COMPLETELY EXPOSED. WE OFFER THEM FOR SALE AS COLLECTORS ITEMS, AND AS CURIOSITIES MAINLY, AND IF THEY ARE USED, SHOULD NOT NOT NOT BE USED AROUND CHILDREN OR PETS! OLDER FANS SHOULD NEVER BE ADJUSTED WHILE RUNNING, AND SHOULD NEVER BE LEFT RUNNING UN-ATTENDED! NEWER DESIGNS ARE MUCH SAFER. THEY DON'T MAKE 'EM LIKE THIS ANYMORE FOR A REASON.

This is about 15" across and about 16" tall. The base is sturdy and heavy (about 12#) so shipping will be via fedex, and dependant upon final destination.
