Circa 1930s “Spirit of St. Louis” airplane ceiling fan. Acquired from a museum that deaccessioned the piece due to space constraints.

This commemorative example references Charles Lindbergh’s “Spirit of St. Louis,” the custom-built, single-engine, single-seat aircraft flown May 20–21, 1927, during the first solo nonstop transatlantic flight from Long Island, New York to Paris, France.  A Dallas Engineering Company fan was used as the platform for this piece. The airplane retains a beautiful, age-appropriate patina, consistent with what one might expect after such a historic journey.  The fan operates properly via a pull-chain switch mounted at the bottom of the fuselage and can also be controlled by a wall switch if desired. Designed for commercial use, it moves a significant volume of air, making it well suited for a workshop, barn, or large collection space.  The original ceiling canopy is present, which is uncommon. We believe this to be a one-of-a-kind commemorative example.

A strong piece for both display and functional use in a larger setting.
