My neighbor collected fans for a long time. He called me over because he needed to sell them. He’s collected them and has no one to pass them on to so there now in my garage. Paid $500 for 17 fans 5 are modern. Three of them are brand new in the box and are ceiling fans.
Two GE with brass blades. And a whole mess of other stuff. Another GE that goes in the window. Some of them need rewired no it’s not a big deal. He even said he would come over one day and we would sit here and rewire the ones that need it. They all work but some of the cords are pretty tore up. There are two that I love. One is the larger GE with brass blades. The other is a 16 inch 1950s mimar dynafan 525. It has the original paint and looks great. Here are some pictures. I’m probably going to keep two of them and sell my other two that I have in the house.

Cool fans man; I will say that when I first read two where ceiling fans in the box I started laughing thinking it was a joke. Yeah I am one of those who reads before looking at the pics.

Still the old ones are really nice looking.

There are a few nice fans there but there's not enough knowledge in my wheelhouse to spend $500. That's too rich for my blood. I did join the old fan club though a few weeks ago. Bought a 12" brass blade 3 speed GE for $15. I need to figure out how to get two of the three speeds working. I figured for the money though it was worth it.

Heavy too, like a small boat anchor. If I lived in Maine, I'd pay mojjax to rebuild it, lol.

Hello,
I know you've had these fans posted for sometime but I'm inquiring about one of the fans you have and I am very interested in it if you still have it. It's the very last at the bottom of your post, it's the blue Mimar Dynafan.
Please let me know if it's still available. You can email me at....([email protected])
Thank you and hope to hear from you.
Pete

I did the same thing with old 30' 40's and 50's electric clocks today Except 12 clocks were $25 I will get them posted. It was a "Haul" of a day!
