Circa 1941 Peerless Roto-Beam 12" Desk Fan Model BS5.  We are pleased to offer such a stunning restored example a Roto-Beam model BS5.  Recently acquired as part of an amazing personal collection of antique electric fans, this model is a testament to the quality of examples within that collection.   Fan was restored in keeping with its original color and highly polished aluminum blades just as it was the day it left the factory.  Power cord features the original inline 3 speed switch which works perfectly.   This fan runs so smooth and quiet, on low it is virtually silent.  An ideal fan for daily use and when not in operation a beautiful design object.
