Wow!! 1905 12" GE Pancake Trunnion Mount Desk Fan. It Appears This Example Sat On A Shelf Preserved Since 1905! This Amazing All Original Pancake Has Been Part Of A New England Area Collection For The Past 40 Years. Fans From This Collection Were Acquired From The Northeastern Region During A 10 Year Period 40 Plus Years Ago. Fans Found In This Region Typically Saw Minimal Use Due To The Climate (Longer Cold Season). We Disassembled This Example, Cleaning And Waxing The Paint Cast Iron Components Before Reassembling. Internally The Motor Has Been Cleaned And Serviced For Use If Desired. Fan Operates Perfectly On All 5 Speeds. Coupling On The Back Ring Of The Cage Appears To Have Had A Slight Gap And Solder On The Surface Since The Day It Left The Factory. Exquisite Example Of A True Survivor Virtually Impossible To Replace With A Better Original Example.
