Very Rare Knapp Type F Motor Bipolar Fan. Motor Appears To Be In 100% Original Condition. The Tripod Base Appears As Tho Its Finish Has Been Updated At Some Point In Its Life. Below The Coils On The Motor Is The Original Off And On Switch. This Switch Plate Also Contains Connecting Terminals For A Power Cord. The Commutator Appears In Good Condition For Its Age. These Brushes Were A Little Tricky When We Tested, The Tensions Applied By The Spring Will Need Some Attention. When Found, This Motor Was Missing Its Blade And Guard. Todd Mann Created This Blade And Guard Which Was A Perfect Compliment To The Motor. Bottom Of The Guard Is Supported By The Tripod Base And Held To The Motor Via Two Brass Struts. This Is A Very Rare Piece Seldom Seen Outside Of The Original Electrical Journals.
